If it is oily, automatic transmission fluid, maybe.
Park the car on some news paper and see where it falls - fluid travels
when you are driving so where you see it is often not where it is
coming from.

Since you don't have the knowledge to diagnose this just tell the mechanic
what you found. If you try to tell him what is wrong you will be paying for
your idea of the problem...
