Oil leak from behind center idler pulley?

I've got a weird one on my 97 900 2.5L manual NA 150k. I did the short belt mod a few years ago and lately I've noticed an oil leak. Replaced the oil pump seal and o-ring, that looks to have gotten part of it but it's still leaking slowly. I cleaned the front of the engine to see if it was coming from the valve cover gasket (which isn't too old since I did the head bolts about 2 years ago too). Anyway, there seems to be some seeping from the area of the unused center pulley for the serp belt. There appears to be a small bolt to the lower right of the pulley partially obscured by the pulley and the leak kind of looks like it's coming from there. I wonder if anyone has seen anything like this before or might know what that bolt is for... Thanks...
