Default Is this all from the CCV?

I have read its called the CCV although when looking at parts stores it comes up under the PCV valve section. Just didn't know if all this oil is coming from that one spot:

I want to say it is but I know everyone on here knows WAY more about Jeeps than I do. This is the first SUV I have ever owned.

Possibly from leaky oil cap also.

Looks like someone spilled a little oil when filling it... Maybe try cleaning it up and seeing if it reappears and where from.

This is a good idea. I'll give that a try and then I will at least be able to narrow the source down. It drips oil as it sits in my garage and the previous person, my brother in law, said it always has done that and he just keeps the oil topped off and didn't worry about it.

I believe that as someone above said, it could be from spilling oil. However it does look like your front PCV hose has oil build up on it. Common sign of those failing. I replaced mine through NAPA. Do you have oil on the air filter?
