If I had to put money on the likely cause, I think a valve cover gasket leak is much more likely than a transmission pan gasket leak. Valve cover gasket leaks (and half moon leaks) are very common on these engines.
It can be hard to tell where oil is coming from since it gets blown all around and drips in strange ways sometimes. I'd wager that if you felt around the backside of both valve covers you'd find one of them is leaking. I say this as someone who's valve cover gasket is leaking and making the transmission pan and steering rack look oily
