take some good quality day light pics it could be your (Crank seal oil feed line ect ect ) go buy some degrease and clean the engine bay and look for the leak.

How bad is the leak?

Left front doesn't help much. Main oil leak problems are the oil pan, and turbo oil return line. The problem with oil leaks, it can kind of follow the shape of the oil pan and end up in a different place then the source, depending on how bad the leak is.

left front, oil filter housing is in that area and turbo, turbo oil seals could also be going, but I agree with the above statement too. Clean it up first and then see where its leaking from.
