Looks like a trolley jack to me - I'll get my coat.

The oil is probably coming from the intercooler which is behind the grill. The car has hit something low down on the nearside front which has damaged/removed the layers of plastic that normally cover the towing eye. |

If you get someone inside revving it up, can you hear a 'hissing' sound from that area? Any lack of performance? Past: FL2 TD4 HSE Auto

As above. The car has impacted something low down damaging the tow eye cover and possibly other plastic components, and the intercooler has likely been damaged as as will, or it wouldn't be leaking oil.
