Help - Oil leak

I noticed tonight that my 2001 Boxster S is leaking a small amount of oil. I lifted it up and I think I found the source of the leak. It's on the drives side of the engine bay. See the red circle area. The oil is dripping on the O2 sensor line. It could be coming from the oil air separator tub that is above it. The tube looked wet (I'll open the engine bay later this week)

How do I know if this is the RMS or something else?

I put some papers under the car to make sure it's not also the oil drain crush ring. I noticed a small amount of oil around the crush ring (yes I reused the crush ring when I changed the oil last time and won't do that again).

Any help is appreciated!

-Steve
