Oil filter housing gasket is what its called. really easy to fix. Take the filter off. Use the correct size socket & unscrew the center bolt. While leaving the coolant hoses attached, move cooler assy to the side & Replace the gasket. Snug the bolt back down. Put new filter back on.
BTW, laying under the car with flashlight waiting for oil to leak doesn't work, unless the leak is from a pressurized source. Most leaks just seep out when the car is sitting with the pan full of oil. Think about it. When the car is running most of the oil is running around the block & head. Which is why most leaks take a few days to really show up.
