Leaking oil from top of VE engine near knock sensor

This happen to anyone? Seems very unusual. I presume it is one of the caps/plugs up there near the sensor but I can't see anything except the oil as it drips down the area where the motor and tranny meet. There is no other place oil can come fom up there is there? The knock sensor just threads into the block.
This car has been sitting for over a year and a half (92 SE auto) so maybe water was sitting in those depressions and ate through the cap?
Please help with ideas. Motor runs very well otherwise.
Thanks.
