Oil Leak on driver side

I was inspecting my car for an upcoming event and noticed oil on one of the bolts from the metal shield that covers the header. I pulled the shield off to inspect and found an oil leak on the driver side. I plan on taking it to the dealer tomorrow, but I wanted to get as much info in regards to a possible cause. Has anyone experienced this before? Any ideas what it might be? See pics below:

It looks like it could have been spill when changing filter.
