Common oil leak spots

I know one of them is the front crank seal, but is there any others? Mine seems to be leaking on the passenger side about middle way up. Can anyone help me?

if it was the oil pan gasket, would it get up on the side of the engine?

scott - i have a similar slow oil leak - is the oil pressure switch difficult to replace? I looked at the FSM and found the location.... looks like an electrical part... got some stupid questions...

1. does the oil have to be drained? (prob yes, by looking at the location)
2. does the switch twist off like a bolt?
