I don't have as much faith in your mechanic as you do. It's a pretty basic thing for a mechanic to determine what is leak and from where. Determining why can be more difficult but somebody needs to at least confirm what is leaking before we can give you any idea why. That oil indicator on your dash is a low pressure warning, not an oil level gauge. When that needle drops, it is an emergency and requires immediately shut down of the engine.
