Oil could be leaking from anywhere, gear box, transfer box, axles, steering or engine just wash the area you suspect with degreaser then have a look it could be a simple thing as the oil filter not screwed up tight and the same with a hose clip. The bad news it could be an oil seal given the problem.

place a bit of news paper under variouse places overnight to give you a better idea of where its comming from also its gonna tell you how much your loosing and easier to identify what kind of oil it is that your loosing.
