Oil on floor of engine bay?

I found out there was a bunch of (pre-assuming oil) on the floor on the engine bay. I think it's coming from the oil filter not being tight enough? The "oil" is only on the right side of the engine bay. (where the oil filter is located). I don't know how long all of that stuff has been there and was wondering if anyone can had a similar experience to this.

What would be the best way to clean up the stuff down there? Would it be dangerous to just use a pressure washer down there?


Couple things to note:
I check my oil somewhat often. The oil level do go down over time little by little. I only had to top it off like twice in the last 5000 miles.


The car has been in Cali the whole time I've owned it (since 2018). Car is 2016
