Youve got a few different leaks going on there. Looks to be the thermostat seal and the cam seals.

Best thing to do is clean that area real good and reinspect. To me it looks like it could be

-Thermostat gasket
-Upper J tube o-rings

But you also have,

-Water pump
-Heater water pipe to thermostat housing gasket
