Need help to find oil leak please!

Hello guys, I just started noticing an oil leak on 2003 3.0 Ranger but I could not tell if its from the rear main or somewhere else. So far its been just a couple of drops in my driveway, no big deal, but I want to address the issue quickly.

I took some pictures, they're poor quality but I hope it helps finding where the oil is coming from. I appriciate your help.

Had to dig a bit _ you have an automatic trans _ the oil looks red _ check the fluid level on the trans.
However it's only just started, it may not show on the dip stick.

Common places on the 3 Litre for oil leaks are, oil pan gasket, rear main crank seal (front and back), inside trans seal at the back of the bell housing.

I would go in the and do all of them, it's time.
