Question concerning a leak (With Photo)

I'm interested in purchasing a 2003 F-250 5.4 crew cab 4x4. And the only leak is coming from what looks to be the rear main seal... Strange that it's leaking all around. It's always scary buying a used vehicle.... However I've had pretty good luck with my Fords; this would be my 4th Ford.

By the pictures it looks higher to me. Inspect it further. Intake manifold, head gaskets, valve cover gaskets, etc...

Took your advise upon further inspection I found it to be the head gasket. I'll keep looking for until I find the right truck.
