I was just wondering about this, I have a 96 xj 4.0, and it seems to leak a little oil around the filter, I also had a 94 grand cherokee and it did the same thing in the same place. its not a lot, just a little, also a little tranny fluid leaks up toward the front from a line, the 92 xj my dad used to have also leaked tranny fluid there as well,

these sound familiar to anyone, let me know

If you want to fix them, most likely the oil filter leak is the O-rings on the adapter that mate the filter to the block. You can get 'em for cheap at the dealership (just ask for oil filter adapter o-rings, there's three of 'em). The other is probably the transmission cooler lines that run from the tranny up to the cooler. The fittings on those leak sometimes, you can get replacement o-rings for those as well.

But hey man, it's a Jeep... it's just marking it's territory.
