I have an oil leak very much like this. I found out after much searching (of course it wouldn't leak while I was looking at it) that the oil was leaking from the purge valve on the oil pan for draining the oil. Of course my luck the thing is stripped so I cant get it out to re-seal... Maybe I'm totally off on your problem. But who knows, I never expected that this problem was caused by something so simple!!!
