Yes, you need a hosting account (or a site that hosts pictures http://www.putfile.com/ ) to have your pictures display not as attachments (unless the pictures are small, then they'll show up even as attachments).
As for your pictures, that is an RMS failure without a doubt.

Socratic,
I had an RMS failure, and I'll try to attach a pic of the underside of my car when it was drippin' for comparison. Basically, in your first pic "near the oil filter" on the silver part in the middle between the strands of wire (sorry, I don't know the part names) is where my car was leaking onto the floor from. It was confirmed as an RMS leak and repaired under warranty by the dealer. That was almost a year ago, and thankfully I'm still leak free.

Thanks Phil. I was afraid of that. My leak is very slow I think. Not like yours where the whole area got wet with oil.
Did the leak evolve slowly? Or did it one day suddenly start leakinga lot?
How much does an RMS fix cost anyways?
What is the ramification of leaving it very slowly leaking like this in a 01 2.7?

If you do get your RMS replaced, have the mechanic check out your clutch too. That would be the time if clutch pad needs replaced.
