Picture is upside down but this is the leak in talking about
Oil leak

Picture is inconclusive. Could just be dirt from the road. Is it actually dripping and has your oil level decreased? I have dirt on the bottom of my engine that I degrease and spray off every now and then.
I think since the shield is gone it attracts dirt and grim kind of weird under there. Oil leaks is the one thing I haven't had with my cruze. I still don't loose a drop of oil between changes. I am on my fourth water pump though hopefully they waved the rubber chicken above the engine when they did the last water pump and my troubles are over with as far as that is concerned. If it wasn't for my water pump my cruze would be perfect. Had some minor stuff but it was all taken care of under warranty (i.e wind noise on the highway by the rear view mirror - they resealed the wind shield and has been gone since) and it was no big deal as it was stuff you would have with any car. Since my last water pump and water outlet replacement I have had no coolant smells or leakage knock on wood (hand is hitting head
). My personal opinion is maybe the water outlets were leaking very little and letting air in the system and maybe screwing with the pump. I think my water outlet was seeping since day one and they finally replaced it since it was dripping coolant. Now I have no where near the coolant smell I use to on my engine. So I am optimistic with this water pump.
