Hey guys. Bought a 99 xj a week ago. Just noticed the other day that it's dripping oil near the drain plug onto the ground. The plug seems to be tight so I don't think it's from there, but the whole bottom of the pan is oily. After inspecting under the hood, there's lots of grime so I can't tell where it's coming from. It's been parked for the last 3 days and the spot has grown to 4 inches in diameter. Any ideas where it's coming from? Head gasket maybe?

Then take it for a drive...no, not in the mud (I know you want to). It helps if it's not rainy or wet out. After running it, leave it sit for about 1/2 hour then crawl underneath and check for visible signs of leakage. If you don't see anything, get yourself a strip of clean cardboard (like a disassembled box) and slide it under the engine. In the morning, check the cardboard for any signs of drippage. If you see none, crawl underneath for a visual.
Keep checking constantly from that point until you see where it's coming from...it should be fairly easy to see if you've cleaned your engine properly.
