It is leaking from the plate, it's not coming from the fuel tank. I smelled it and it's definitely oil but doesn't smell or look like the transmission fluid, it's black so i was thinking motor oil but it is darker than the motor oil and i don't believe motor oil is supposed to be there. I'm just worried oil is getting somewhere it's not supposed to or there's an oil that i don't know of that would be low/old that needs changing.
Also as far as power steering, i don't think it's that since the tank and pump are in front of the motor and it's not black either.
