As the title says. It's dripping down onto a hose of some kind (heater hose?) and my PS rack. Seems to only leak when the car's been sitting for a while after being driven. Any ideas?

hard to say with out a picture but the distributor has an O ring seal that can leak oil out.

If it is really just the rear of the engine...towards the firewall. The oil filter housing has a figure 8 O ring that can go bad.

Don't forget about all the PCV hardware back there that develops leaks.

Thanks for the tips, ever since I had a new pan/pan gasket put on the car the leak has become really tiny. It was a lot worse before then. BTW is synth blend oil bad for these cars? Paranoid that it's going to gum my motor up or make it leak even more oil.
