Hello, I don’t have a single clue about cars and am wondering about an oil leak on my car. The area above the … blue thing is slick with oil and the ground has a small oil spot when I checked under it. Where/what is the leak and what can I do to fix it… Thanks

It looks like the valve cover gasket is leaking

Not expensive to replace
