oil leak, now what?

alright I just picked up a 97 Max GLE, auto, black leather....love this car. It has 209xxx miles and runs like a dream. Daily driver for me and my wife, I drive 14 mile round trip to work and home then she takes it 70 mile round trip to school at night. So we drive this thing 90-100 miles a day. Well I discovered that I have an oil leak, enough that it drips off the bottom of the engine every 10-15 seconds. I put it up on the lift today after adding some dye and discovered its coming from the REAR engine cover just under the p/s pump. Now a car with this much mileage I dont know if I want to go through the hassle of pulling the rear cover. What would you do? I was debateing just letting it leak and keeping an eye on it.
