Default Need help identifying engine components to find leak

Hello,
I found that I have an oil leak coming from the undercarriage near the driver's side. I have a 2011 T&C with the 3.6L. I believe I have a gasket of some sort leaking because I see where the oil looks to have sprayed around, likely under pressure. I see at least one or two boxy covers for engine components on that side, but am unfamiliar with what they are and have not found a good schematic or pics of the undercarriage that helps identify components. It looks like the seal/gasket between this boxy apparatus is giving way as there is quite a bit more of it squirted out from what it's in between than I'd expect to see.
I'm pretty handy and fix a majority of components / issues on my own, but need help figuring out what's what. If you have any links to diagrams or pictures that detail what I'm looking at, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Thanks.

More than likely the oil filter/cooler housing has sprung a leak up on top of the motor, and of course oil would track downwards. Should be able to pop off the top motor cover and see it. AND CHECK your engine oil level.
