[s-cars] Oil Leak - Driver's Side of Engine - it was the Oil Pressure Sending Unit

Thanks everyone! You guys nailed it, the oil was coming from the oil
pressure sending unit, but it was hard to tell due to the rubber boot over
it. 

Given the feedback from the list about how you can get a real gusher when
these sensors let go, I'm happy to report that I missed that kind of
excitement despite driving the car in and out of the mountains (200 miles
round trip) with the thing dripping.

It's now replaced and was a very simple, fast and cheap job. Can't say that
about most things in life. . .

Again, the you guys rule!
