I may have the same...very small weep over time. Defo not oil cooler in the "V" or the pipe O rings as that's been done and is as dry as a bone in there. 2011 4.4 TDV8 Vogue SE Buckingham Blue with Ivory and clear glass = "Rory"

If you pop your wheel off, use an axle stand or two because you need to get your head right in the wheel well.
If you have a GoPro or similar it might even get you visibility deeper in that pocket of the engine bay.

Booking it in for an inspection. Needs the engine bottom covers removing for a better look. It appears to be somewhere above and forwards of the front diff....and it’s defo engine oil
Top of diff bone dry, bottom a bit of oil on it. Block behind looks a little moist too.....  2011 4.4 TDV8 Vogue SE Buckingham Blue with Ivory and clear glass = "Rory"

Does sound similar to mine DrRob.
Block a bit wet behind: my theory is that wind pressure pushes it back.

I had oil leak on mine a whale back and it was a plug that screws in the top of the oil pump. I losend the plug, applied some silicon, tighten it back in and all good.

Funny isn't, I have a solid search on mine and - couldn't find it.

For a big car with a big engine bay, there's so much stuff packed in there you can't clearly see either side of the engine.
