So I think I found the issue. Car has been parked for a month, I finally got around to changing the oil. I ended up taking the skid plate off as I wanted to install my short shifter as well. Anyways, I noticed a decent amount of oil build-up directly below the oil fill/oil filter area near the bottom of the engine. After doing a bit of research I've found that it could be the timing cover/valve cover leaking. Apparently it's a fairly common issue with this engine as well as other suby engines. I'll post pics tomorrow.
