When was the last oil change? I've seen cross threaded drain plugs that only leaked under pressure. Check the bell housing for oil stains. Check the frame rails and firewall for oil stains.
Otherwise, looks like you might be burning a little oil. Get the truck up to running temp and see what the exhaust looks like. If there's a blue tint to it, you're burning oil.
