not sure - but it would help if he said where exactly the drip was in relation to the engine and oil hoses. a dinner plate size oil spot is quite large otherwise i would guess a rubber hose was dried up and shrunk allowing some oil to ooze out from the crimped end the way mine are doing now...though i drive my car everyday. maybe he did an oil change right before storing it and dripped a lot while pouring oil in and it sat on the car somewhere until the next time he ran it? otherwise i cant imagine such a large amount of oil only dripping once, regardless of 6 months...such an amount would suggest something chronic i would think
