Oil Pan Gasket leak or worse Rear Main Seal??

I was under the car today and noticed this sign of an oil leak. From the pictures, would you suspect an oil pan gasket leak or would it be a much more involved rear main seal?

I actually had a shop replace the oil pan gasket about 9 months ago, so I dunno if they didn't do a good enough job or if this is a whole new leak.






would love any insight. Thanks!

That is THE most problematic area for these OPGs so it's hard to say I mean we can pray it is just a loose bolt on the rear of the OPG right?? *Clutches torque wrench
