Default Oil leak, PLEASE HELP!!!

On my 99' Sportsman 500 it has a leak at the bottom of the engine where there are 3 lines plugging into the engine, these line are space above one another. the leak is coming, it looks like to me, through the gasket because the oil is slowly oozing through the lowest point down there and it seems like a gasket. the question is, is there anything i can pour in the oil and it may help stop the leak or could i clean really good around the leak and put a high temp gasket sealent or should i just fork out the $50 an hour and let the professionals do it??Thanks, PB500
