Oil leaking from long screw off oil pan

Hi folks,

I noticed that there's some oil that seems to be leaking from the long black screw that is attached to the engine oil pan nearest the transmission pan.

I have not removed the bolt, but anyone know where that bolt leads to? Does it reach into the oil pan too? If not, I am curious why oil would be coming out of it...

Thanks!
