Oil leak potential locations

Messages

Hi Guys,
I have been trying to determine a location of a small oil leak I have but cannot find where it is coming from. I have changed the rocker cover gasket as the leak seemed to be comming from up top. The thing is, because the oil leak is not major, I cannot see an obvious place that it can come from. It seems like it seeps down and then hits the driveshaft and sprays it everywhere near the passenger side of the engine and that side of the subframe is coated with oil. Any potential locations it can be coming from. It does seem like it is coming from up top somewhere but then again I cannot be too sure.
 
Could be the chain cover on the driver's side of the engine (assuming you are in a RHD car). That is just over where the driveshaft is.
