on the drivers side.. there are several potential oil seepage/leak areas.. including the crankshaft seal, oil pump seal, and oil sending switch...
unless you see oil visibly leaking/dripping.. rather than just a very slow leak.. where it's seeping out.. I would just top it off with oil.. and drive it to the shop.. 20 miles isn't much.. if its a slow leak.. No need to put an oil leak stop product in .. just to get it to a shop.. as they can cause other issues, down the road....
I doubt the CEL has anything to do with the leak.. so make sure you get that checked out as well...
You mentioned moisture on the drivers side as well.. The only thing I can think of over on that side. is some seepage from the transmission gasket... Do you have a manual or automatic?
