What part of the pan is it leaking from? Could any of the bolts loosened up over 6 months?

from the bottom of the oil pan? that bolt? I can guarantee you either:

1. you're leaking out the threads of the oil pan bolt (means the washer isn't there or working)

2. your oil pan seal is leaking, running down tha pan, and falling from the lowest point.

if it's coming off the flex-plate shield, it could be ugly.
