Why does oil leak when engine turns over?

When your engine turns over, there is an oil pump inside the engine that is being driven by the crankshaft. It is creating pressure by pumping oil throughout the engine. Most will achieve around 40 to 50 lbs. If there is a problem with any of the lines or gaskets in the system, it will leak when there is pressure. Try to locate the leak by washing the area that's leaking and watch it as someone turns the engine over. Most leaks of this sort aren't too hard to fix.

Does the starter turn over the timing chain?

The starter turns the flywheel at the back of the engine. When the flywheel turns the whole engine turns. The timing chain is on the other end at the front of the engine. It is connected to the crankshaft and camshaft (s). So indirectly yes it does. If the whole engine is turned but the timing chain doesn't, there is a problem. Probably a broken timing chain.
