The best approach is to wash the area with engine degreaser, then add a small bottle of dark purple dye to the oil. Search later with a black light. The dye will show up as a bright yellow stain that you can follow back to the source. Auto parts stores have the dye, and those that rent or borrow tools should have a black light.
