My car was just in a fender bender a last week, got the car back, things that were fixed was, head light assembly, ac condenser, radiator, hood, bumper, and some mounts and such that hold the bumper and hood and what not. So the problem i am noticing is that after the car is driven for a lil bit 20 min plus, there is about a 5 inch circle which smells a little bit like oil but when i put my fingers in it and paper towel, theres no color, but there is a residue, its not like water. and its a very slow drip because it took 10 hours to make and that little circle. and i checked all the fluids, and none of them seem any lower than from the last time i checked them. Any idea what this could be, i do plan on taking it back to the repair shop, and i don't know if anyone really has seen or worked on this car, but you cant see jack crap under the car, it sits so low, and there looks like plates under the engine to protect it or something. so any info would be great, whether you know, or even speculation that i could look into.

check and make sure one of the powersteering lines isn't leaking. Let me know what you find.
