Default Oil Leak from Engine Mount?

Hi, I have a 2010 Mazda 6 2.2L. I've noticed quite a lot of oil under the right side engine mount and ABS pump. there is no obvious leak from the engine so I'm baffled where it is coming from. My question is: does the engine mount contain oil which may have leaked out. It seemed to be a sudden release of oil. Hopefully somebody can confirm. I had a mechanic take a quick look but he said the mounts do not contain oil, but im not convinced. Thank you.
