is the leak now on the front? If still rear it could be upper oil pan, rear main seal, valve cover gaskets or cam adjuster seal.

I've had a good amount of leaking on the right rear (valve cover and tensioner seal) for the past year and a half which I intend to fix this spring. no other inconvenience but smell coming inside when not moving.
