1997 chevy cavalier 112000 miles

Easy, don't get you shorts in a knot over one drip. :lol:

Keep this in mind, one wet spot on bottom may be running down from a higher source.

First, where is it in relation to the front wheels, the front of the car. I need to know a respectable description of the location...for starters.

When was the last oil change?

From an above view of the engin the leak is i think about 8 inches to the left of the dip stick, probely just ahead of the wheels. There is a drop under it every time its parked in a different spot. Im not currently driving the car because i have to finnish paying it off first.

What is the 8th digit of the vin.
What motor does it have?

it has the 2.2 liter four cylinder standard motor, nothing special. is it possible that its the oil pan?

Of course it could be. IT could be a loose filter, a oil drain plug or it's gasket, or any other gasket. Again reflect back on what I said earlier:

Keep this in mind, one wet spot on bottom may be running down from a higher source.

On the top of the motor is a valve cover and It's gasket, check around that. Below that is the Cylinder head that concerned you, check all the way around that. Work your way down until you have the suspicious areas noted. Then take a can of brake clean and a rag and clean the suspicious areas if you don't think you're sure of the leak. Then run the engine and see if anything appears. Also check to make sure there is good vacuum at your pcv valve.

pvc valve?

I know, what does that have to do with the price of bannanas? :?

If the pcv system is restriced it will create additional pressure and possibly cause leaks.
