Default XFR oil pan leak

Is that common to have a leak close to the oil pan?
It looks like it’s on the top side but I am not %100 sure. What gasket do I need?
Pleas if you know the part number it will help me a lot.
2011 XFR 5.0 Supercharged
Thanks

I had a leak at the vacuum pump on my white XF a couple years ago. I tighthened it down and it never leaked again.

Yes, vacuum pump is the likely culprit here. I'd just buy a new seal for it (~$25). Keep a close eye on your oil level in the meantime - these engines don't like running low.

How often do you change your oil? It looks like mud coming out of there. When mine was leaking, it just looked like oil.

Do yourself a favor and clean your engine BEFORE you start any work fixing it. You could always run a oil UV dye test on it to verify the leak location.
