Passenger side? That's basically the low point for all the gaskets, so it could be coming from up top or the oil pan gasket itself. Probably a combination of the two. Check along the side of the engine and see if the valve cover is leaking, then go underneath and look at the oil pan gasket. Best case it's just gravity pulling the top leak down. Also take a good long look at your oil filter housing gakset. If it's leaking, not only do you need to replace it, but the accessory belt that it's been leaking on. And the Mickey Mouse flange while you are there. And your belt tensioner. And maybe the alternator if it is heavily contaminated.
And then...
