Oil leak, not a drip, a gushing mutha of an oil leak

Hi peeps, long time no speak.

My car develops a sudden oil leak today. It otld me to put oil in a couple of times , then said, NO PRESSURE, STOP DRIVING IMMEDIATELY 😂.

Anyway, I got it home, put another couple of liters in. Run ODIS on it. Came up with a cam sensor fault - OK, common with low oil.

HAd I Quick Look underneath (in the dark), I can literally see it running out of the tray, near side, near front wheel.

Obvs I'll get to down to the garage next week and whip the tray off and see what we're dealing with. Just thought id do some recon here.

Any of you had a sudden and bad leak from around that area? Im thinking it must be a split pipe..... 🤔
