I was looking on my garage floor and there is alot of drops of oil on the floor, coming from the bottom of the block. and the whole bottom of the block looks oily and black (build up?) wondering if its just a minor oil leak or its an RMS. Dont have warrenty, so im scared that it is...

RMS is dead center where the engine joins to the transmission. If it's blown oil all over the engine then it is pretty bad and you will likely need a new clutch too.

I may have been the only one to have this problem, but my oil leak was as you describe with the bottom of the engine black etc.etc. It turned out to be a defective oil pan. Apparantly oil was leaking through one of the screw holes even though there was a screw there. Anyway, it was replaced has been bone dry ever since. I wanted to take a pic of the "defective" oil pan, but they said it was already on it's way to PCNA. I guess they didn't want me to see it.
