No the one plug that is there is to go in the open hole when you are fording in water. Is it coming from the hole, maybe rear main seal. But it looks like it is coming from the oil pan area.
Did they over fill it? Or not get the filter on right?

I had to add 2 quarts of oil yesterday morning. Dip stick was down to the add mark. I seems like it is coming from the open hole.

In the second photo, I can see oil dripping down the rear of the block (driver's side). Start following the leaking trail. The blow-by drain hose is near there, but I doubt it's coming from that after a simple oil change.

It seems to puke that puddle out all at once after driving then stopping. It will drip while the engine is running then basically after that amount it stops even though the engine is still running. And to make it even more weird, it only does it occasionally.......

It sounds like a rear main seal. And the oil is getting on the fly wheel.

I found the leak. Is the oil pressure sensor located under the fuel filter on the drivers side of the engine? If that is indeed the oil pressure sensor it is leaking from there, running down the side of the engine and pooling at the bottom. Any suggestions on a repair or do I just need to replace the sensor? Thanks guys!
