Default where is this oil coming from?
I am getting oil on the topside of my air filter and in the bottom of my filter box. There is enough oil that it leaks out and leaves a spot in my driveway. where is this oil coming from? I have around 88,000 miles and no major issues until the past 1,000 miles. Any suggestions?

Yes, I agree with RubberFrog. If you see oil in the air intake the first thing you should do is replace the PCV valve.
