A little oil leakage ok while car is sleeping??

Hi guys I have a quick question regaurding my sleeping car (for the winter). Well I have it on jackstands and I just went to see it for the first time since November. I went to check underneath to see how things look and I noticed some oil droplets on some things. (I'll use a picture from one of Vaders posts to demonstrate). Where the arrows are, is where there were some droplets. I didnt drain the oil before I stored it, should I have done this?? Is it ok for a little oil to be present or is there something wrong. The car wasnt leaking before I stored it. Thanks for ANY input guys!!

Oh also there were no real oil spots on the ground that I could tell from underneath. I wanted to check the oil level but the car is covered and it would be a REAL hassle.
