99 2.5 Boxster - Oil leak back right hand side, above muffler

Hello, I've got a 99 Boxster base (2.5) that has an oil leak at the back right side, near the inner passenger tire. Appears to be coming from above the muffler, pictures below. I've recently replaced the spark plug tubes and I still have the leak. Any guesses on what this could be?

It looks like your transmission mount is leaking. They don't have a lot of fluid in them. Clean it up and see if the leak has stopped (no more fluid left).
