More Info required About your vehicle:
Does the oil seem to be dripping from the bottom of the front engine cover? (behind the crankshaft pulley)
Is it a small leak? (seap) Or pretty fast?

Addition yes it its seems to be dripping from bottom of the front engine behind the crank shaft. It seems to leak pretty fast if idling in park but not when in motion.

Answer That is normally the front crankshaft seal. The best thing to so with that is to do the timing belt as well, (since it has to come off) and the camshaft seals, (while in there)
In fact, the seals labor is combined with the timing belt job. All together that should run about $475, (national average) The labor tiems would be standard rather than warranty.
