Was under my 06 LX470 the other day and noticed that there some oil that appeared to be seeping out right were the engine and bell housing meet on the bottom. Nothing dripping and I have not ever noticed a puddle of oil on the ground where I park, but I checked the oil level and sure enough it was about half full, so something is definitely leaking or burning slowly. Any ideas what this might be?
 
Can you see if there is oil on the top or sides of the bell housing? If so, it could be an oil leak from one of the valve cover gaskets.

I will check, but I don't remember seeing anything on the sides or the top. Thanks!
