Can you analyse and identify the source of this leak in the BMW E90 based on a picture?

Greetings, gentlemen. Based only on these pictures, I would appreciate it if someone could provide a diagnosis or provide insight into the reason of this little leak, as well as the likelihood of it being a cost-effective and straightforward repair. Just to provide some background, this is in reference to a BMW E90 330i. Thank you!

The oil pressure switch seems to have a little leakage, but because the surrounding aluminium housing is dry, I doubt that the small amount of oil found on the bottom tray is caused by the switch.
It is not feasible to evaluate the issue only from a photo. The under tray has to be removed in order to properly assess the problem.

Thank you for the responses. Just to clarify, I do not currently own the automobile, thus I am unable to do any inquiry at the moment. I was seeking reassurance that it did not seem unattractive. Clearly, I will never have a definitive understanding unless I am able to thoroughly examine the situation.
