Engine oil leak
Discussion
Identify where the oil is coming from. It may be coming from another location other than where you think. IF you indiscriminately tighten nuts or fasteners at the wrong place you may create a new leak, or cause an even a bigger problem.
Generally a nut or fastener tighten is not the solution anyhow. It is a new seal, gasket, o-ring, or a new seal of the camshaft cover or something like that. Knowing where the oil is coming from and having an expert's opinion on what the leak means in terms of repair is what you need.
Put your tools away and dig out your phone book and starting looking for a place to take the car.
