Some possible points of leakage are:

-Oil pan gasket

-crankshaft seal

-timing cover gasket

-valve cover gasket

-intake manifold gasket

The best method for narrowing down the leak is to degrease the engine (use a spray degreaser, scrub the crud & rinse) and then keep an eye out for fresh oil marks. Follow those marks to their origin and you'll locate the leak.
