Which motor is in it? 3.1, 3.4, `3.8? Can you tell where/area oil is dripping/running from? Most common leak on 3.1 or 4 is oil pump drive which is where the older models distributor shaft was on top between engine trans. Replace "O" ring.

Could also be valve cover gaskets, oil pan gasket, or crank seals. Oil filter seal or oil pressure sender unit.
