Hey Stuart, I know this may sound far fetched, but I wonder if it's possible the oil that is leaking now, could be coming from up in the bell housing (hogshead)?

I did not clean any oil from inside the bell housing before I put the pan back on. The reason I say this is because the oil that leaked out lastnight is used/brown.

I just put fresh oil back in the engine. I thought maybe when the engine warmed up from the 9-10 mile drive, maybe it started the old oil running out. Knowing how my luck goes, that would be too good to be true!
