    clean the whole area off drive a few see if its coming from an external parts of the engine. if u cant find it pull your timing cover back and see whats up. just an fyi if oil is on your belts timing most important find the problem fix it replace belts.

    well all we can do is tell you where to look, but I cant see it to tell you where its coming from...best thing to do is clean it really good and then watch for it while its running but might take some miles to get it back out where you can see it again...But ideas to look


    cam seals,crank seal,valve cover gasket,oil presure switch,headgasket,oil pan
