Does anyone know where my oil leak is coming from? It appears to be from the right side of the engine and the oil is clear and does not smell. Does the starter have oil in it, because it has been acting up lately (continues after the key turned back)

Can you take a picture of the leak? No, the starter doesn't have oil in it.

It's hard to get a good picture but the fluid appears to be clear and odorless but with a viscosity similar to an oil base fluid. It left a fairly large puddle but appears to have stopped, very wierd.

Are you sure this isn't Brake Fluid..?

I'd say there's a possibility it's your power steering fluid, but with as much leaking as you've indicated, you'd definately be getting whining from the p.s. pump by now. Not to mention, if you've still got the plastic under-body dust shields in place, the leak wouldn't necessarily appear directly underneath its source.
