Help identifying an oil leak
Noticed a few spots on the floor on the weekend. There are two pipes that come off the rear of the car toward the engine. It appears there is rubber coupling that attaches them to the car. One is leaking (passenger side one) and the other may be starting to seep.
I would greatly appreciate help in identifying them.

Are you positive its engine oil? Have you had any recent services done like (oil change or any added fluids). The area of the pictures you posted only fluid that can leak from there is coolant unless it's leaking from top then dripping down and collecting on the rubber gasket?

There is oil on the bolt head in your first picture ABOVE the pipes and as was pointed out, those carry water. Look for the highest wet spot and start there.
