Default Possible oil leak?

This afternoon when i was leaving school i noticed a pubble of what appeared to be oil under my car. In the spot were i park it in the day theres none. I know its a school and most people drive crappy cars that leak a quart a minute, so im hoping that it was already there.

When i get around to jacking it up were should i look for a leak at? the pan looks like it may have oil residue on it but it would have had to leak ALOT cuase it was a big puddle plus whats on the pan. I checked the level and its the same.

Just leave it in the drive way or garage and see if it leaks over night. Hopefully it was already there

Just check for oil anywhere under the engine on the sides of the engine, and most likely if you just noticed it once, then it probably wasnt your car...oh and keep an eye on ur dipstick
