Default Oil leak...dropping on exhaust

I am a new owner of 993TT. I have just recently ( last night at the gas station ) noticed some smoke coming from out of the rear driver's side wheel/fender well. I looked when I got home and noticed 4 or 5 quarter sized drops of oil on the floor and some oil drops hanging from the plate below the driver's side exhaust.

Any suggestions?? It goes in for service in week for a RS clutch and LTW fly. Any idea's of cost from low to high??

Thanks much!!

Probably a cam cover gasket, should be pretty cheap when the clutch gets swapped.
