You need to clean the valley very good then look for the source of the leak. Remove the decorative engine cover and the heat shielding over the small blue fuel lines between the pump and filter. Start it up, Use lots of light and mirrors so you can check all the possible places a leak can form.
The HPOP and HPO lines and turbo pedistal are likely places for oil leaks.
Are you sure it's oil, fuel will look like oil when it mixes with the crud built up in the valley.

ya because it is dripping off of my trans n it looks like a main but from what ive heard they are pretty rare? I also have a problem that when i am in overdrive i cant get above 2200 rpm or 65 mph in stock tune or with my chip out, but if i put it in neutral while going that speed it revs right up. I do have a plow on the front but it shouldnt effect it that much it never did before?
