Default 1968 Delmont 88..oil leak..advise sought.

Ok so today i go and start my car no problems but when i get home i notice some fresh oil on the ground.. I lift my car up and the bottom is caked with fresh oil....
It appears to be coming from above the oil pan and above the tranny bell housing.. theres no oil in the water or vice versa//

any ideas on where to start on this?

Wash down the block with a pressure hose and degreaser. Start the car and let it idle. Watch and see if you can detect the location of the leak.
