It leaks somewhere from here i think ..

That's what I was thinking, the hose may have perished/cracked below the plastic container/oil return/breather.
One of my daughters had a 06 Grande Punto 1.3 MJ with that pipe cracked some years ago.

Is there a gasket underneath or something?

I think the pipe and container are are just bolted against the engine block so not a gasket area, the pipe to the right I think is water hose again from memory.

There is an intake manifold behind them, is it possible that oil is leaking there?

Unlikely if oil leak.

Unlikely if oil leak.

If it's the breather pipe, it's possible to be a little oil dripping. But not leak.
How much oil is there, @alexalex? Did you take a photo?
