I've had the same problem. Checking other blogs, I've found out that the leak comes from an elbow fitting at the rear of the block (passenger side). It contains an O-ring that needs to be replaced, but the problem may be caused by blockage. Do a Google search for the problem & you'll get more answers. -RJC

Did you check the oil pump, and oil lines at the front of the engine? Start at the front, because what you're seeing with it going from front to rear could possibly just be blowback from the engine fan.
