Need Help Identifying an Oil Leak

Guys & Gals, can anybody help me out in identifying this oil leak?

I was under my car changing out the oil and saw this? I know the RMS leak has been discussed countless times here, but I have only seen pictures of the engine taken apart.

Is this an RMS leak, if not, any idea what it is from?

I would help you but can't see pictures! These are the issues-
dribble under middle of car - RMS
off to side cam seal
off to side could be oil filter not tightened or sealing area cleaned
also could be oil pan gasket-

This is what my RMS leak looked like.

And where it was on the ground, smack dab in the middle. Kitty liter anyone?
