oil leak, back/side of engine... lower intake?

[Loochy88]

I was under the car today and noticed a bunch of oil. It seemed to be all over the rear passanger side of the block, the back of the passanger side head looked oily, and there was oil collecting in the transmission cover. does this seem to be a lower intake gasket leak?

sounds that way. shouldn't be that bad to change.

upon closer inspection, seems it may actually be the back of the valve covers. the driver side cover is wet where it meets the head in the very back, but i cant see the passanger side since that bracket is in the way. seems like an awful lot of oil to be leaking from the valve cover.
