Default HELP. Is this oil leak on my 991.2 after oil change

Hi all,
I went to dealer for oil change few days ago, and didn't drive the car.
Today I found some oil leak on the ground. Is the leak coming from engine oil or transmissions oil?
Does anyone know? Please see pictures attached.

Thank you!

Wrong forum; stick a mirror and a flashlight up under the car to trace the origin. Your car is relatively new so it should be easy to detect. From the photo it looks like oil is trapped between your inner and outer fender bottom lip? And...are you sure it wasn't there before you parked the car?

Stick a finger on that spot and see if you can get some residue. Is it oily? Or like Anti-freeze maybe? Or water? It's very hard to tell from the image.

Try and take a picture from the angle below? This is from my last oil change on my '17 C2. As you can see, the oil drains from the sump via the opening in plastic oil pan. The oil drain plug is a plastic, 1/4 turn item, that according to Porsche should be replaced each time. Was this plug replaced? Is there any oil dripping from it? First I'd check in that area, then go from there.
