There are at least 5 different fluids that can leak out of the car(engine oil, tranny oil, P/S oil, coolant and washer fluid). You will have to trace the leak to it's source, to find where it's coming from. Old engine oil is slightly brown to black, tranny fluid and old P/S fluid is pinkish to brown, coolant is greenish and washer fluid is blue. Hope this helps you to narrow down your search for the leak.
Trying tightening the oil filter, or your oil pan itself is loose or may have been hit and the seal is broken, let's hope it's not that. if you can't see anything that really sticks out, take it to a lube shop for a cheap tune up. They may come across something or just by their routine they may solve the problem. I've gotten lucky that way with two trucks now. Good luck
If its oil, check around oil pan for leaks at oil pan gasket also check around oil filter. if its coolant check the hoses around radiator etc.
First you need to identify what's leaking? What color is fluid? Green, Red, Brown? and where under car is fluid leaking from center, front rt, etc... Another option is check ALL fluid levels - coolant, oil, power steering, transmission.
