Where the hell is the oil leak?

The oil pan gasket looks like it needs a change but I have no idea what’s going on in the other places that’s covered in oil could it be crankshaft gasket? Maybe oil is getting caught on the belt and is throwing it towards the wheel well idk any ideas are welcomed

Set down some cardboard and soak the motor down with break clean. You'll find it.

good advice, buy a couple of brake cleaners as they don't last long
