Default XKR Oil Leak

Hi
My car (2004 model) was quite recently serviced.
I noticed some oil on my drive today right at the front of the car under the 'chin' area.
Underneath the car inbetween the two bolts it is covered in clean oil.


Not being technical or able to see the area where the oil is.


Perhaps someone might suggest where it might be coming from.
Being a bank holiday, I will have to wait till Tuesday to go to the main dealer that serviced it GRRRrr


Thanks in advance.

My immediate thought would be the oil cooler or it's lines if by chin you mean right under front bumper (not too far behind front plate).

Could be a filter leak depending on exact spot.

Thanks
As you say, not far behind plate.
Hard to pinpoint spot as it is quite oily and oil spreads.on a ramp it would be easy.
Thanks for your thoughts.
