Best bet will be to degrease everything - then check back in a couple of days to try and trace the oil leak upwards from underneath. Obviously the gravity brings it down to the lowest point (that bolt) and often wind rushing under the car blows it back across everything.

Unfortunately, I've had a similar leak and it was the rear main seal.
