Default Oil Leak

Hi every1, I had my car in storage for the last 3 months and noticed there was about half a litre of oil under the car. It looks like its coming from the rearmain but could it be the oil pan? I started the car every 3 weeks but didnt notice this problem. Thx for any help.

Could be the oil pan gasket. Mine started from there right before i put her away .... Anyhow just one of many possibilities I guess.
