My wife has a 2002 Toyota Celica GT with no problems unitl recently. I checked and saw that there was an oil leak which appears to originate on the passengar side front just behind of what appears to be a skid plate. I should mention that an oil change was performed about a month ago. Is this coincidental or could it be a gasket? Thank you for your time.

Hi there,
The engine oil filter is at the front of the engine and when changed last oil may have been spilt on the lower engine cover (common problem) Wash down and re inspect in a day or two, I feel that there will be no leak. But best to be safe.
