Default Oil spray/splatter on jackstand?

I'm getting oil spray/splatter on the jackstand of my '06 FXD during a ride, and I can't determine where it is coming from. I put a Baker IPB on it, and the seal weeps; also, the shifter shaft seal weeps. Would any of these result in the spray/splatter, or could it be another leak? Ever happened to any of you? Thank you.

Jackstand=kickstand?

If so, check all your oil lines/cables for small leaks. And of course, fully clean the area, then go for a ride. It's easier to trace a leak when it's very clean and the only trace is new. I've seen oil leaks from the front right rocker boxes coming down all the way to the primary drain plug.

Wash real good between the primary, and trans as well. The shifter shaft seal, drive seal, etc. Even the derby cover weaping can show up on the stand.
