+1 that this could be the cause. Hopefully it isn't the blower's seals but from what others have said here it could very well be.

Quick update, I just cleaned up everything up to the blower (air filter, air box, associated hoses and the blower itself) to see if it persists. It also occurred to me to ask if an overly oiled air filter could cause such a mess? I did find a good pool of oil in the air box. I did clean up the air filter, I will let it dry and then tomorrow I will re-oil the filter, and put everything back together and hopefully drive it briefly on Tuesday.

Please get an oil catch can as well and run the valve cover breather hose to that can eliminating it going to the blower's intake. There will always be oil in that area as it is now.

Doesn’t seem like I’m losing a lot of oil. Pretty small leak under the car.
