I was told my car has a leak from the oil pan. so I have been keeping an eye on my fluids before driving. My oil level has not gone down by very much at all, but I let my car sit for about two weeks and noticed the puddle looked weird. Is this fluid just how oil looks when it drys?

It feels kind of thick yet slimy on my finger, and runs down it if I leave it on my finger too long. It is all coming from the middle area of my engine, ignore my cars rear being by it, I just backed it up this time.

To me it looks like oil of some sort (probably engine oil) and water. Have you noticed any coolant leaks?
