After I jacked my car on stands, oil started to leak...

Before storing my car for the winter i experienced oil in my coolant. After doing research I bought a new oil cooler and seals. My plan was to start on it today but I jacked the car up and oil started to leak.

It dripped for about 10min and pretty much stopped, after putting it back down it didnt leak again. The first picture shows the small puddle after 15 min of being lifted.

In the second picture, it shows where its leaking from, obviously its leaking on the skid plate and rolling down from somewhere but where? Also it was a action shot of the oil drip, its not pouring out or anything.

Oil gauge reads half oil which makes sense because thats what it was left at before winter. And there are no other oil spots on the floor from the winter.

I understand it could be the rms or hopefully something less hectic, but why is it leaking while being lifted?
