Is the oil on the ground or is it just showing low on the dip stick?

I have a feeling its option number 1 on this video clip as it tells me the direction of oil leak (Cover gas Kit) the oil leak is very slow and spreads out. link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ymcxmBg911s

a broken oil filter housing gasket is common on BMW's. Check it out. I just replaced mine coz I had the same problem. It's a 'lil bit hard to replace if you're not mechanically inclined but it can be done.
