The upper oil seal on the cam is leaking. It probably wont jump time due to this but the timing belt may be damaged by the oil.

My wife's car had this problem. if the leaking is coming from the front of the engine, the water pump is probably bad. If the leak is coming from the right side of the car, your heater hoses might be bad or the core could be shot. If your water pump is bad, plan on replacing your timing belt. you have to move it to replace the water pump and it is just as easy to change it at the same time.
