Oil leak

I notice an oil leak between the area where the engine and transmission meet and the leak seem to be coming from the inspection plate

If car is old, coul be an accumulation over time. I would firstly clean everything and check back to see how fast it comes back. Might not be a problem after all. Would also be wise to check oil and tranny fluid levels to be sure everything is full in the meantime.

I took off the small cover in the picture where i do see a bit of oil in the area where the transmission meets the engine there is some oil in there looks like cvt oil. I washes the outside area and saw a little pooling
