Another idea for those of you with N53s with sideways drain plugs, you could cut an L-shaped piece out of a used oil bottle and pop rivet it to the undertray where it would deflect oil back out from under the engine. The plastic should be flimsy enough to just deflect if the undertray was pushed up by a bump or something. This could represent a semi-permanent solution for next to no money.
