Oil Leak

My truck has had an oil leak for some time now and it appears to only leak when cold. Crawlwd under the truck this AM while it was idling to warm up and I saw a steady drip, 1 per second, coming from right behind the crank pulley. Looks like pan is leaking from where it wraps arount the front cover. I don't experience this leak when the engine is warmed up. Any thoughts?
I really don't want to pull the engine. I just put a new 6sp transmission in it and work has not been all that good.
