Oil leaking everywhere

I have a 93 rs and I open my hood today and found oil all over my transmission, sparks plugs, and above my headers. Can anyone tell me where the oil is leaking from?

by 95 rs
i suggest clean it off with engine degreaser then check the oil level, top it off if need be and tnee if you can see the leak..... its hard to tell exactly where since you dont have enough detail in your description...

well, chances of it being your Valve cover gasket are probably 99%. if its in your plug holes and everywhere you describe then thats what it probably is, but i cant actually see it so i cant say for sure, but check that.

Can anyone else confirm this? My car is in the EXACT situation, so I plan on buying a new valve cover gasket and getting it installed some time this week.

if its in your park plugs thats really the only gasket it could be, since its the uppermost gasket.
just replace you valve cover gasket anyway, the thing will cost you $15 shipped, and you can do it yourself.
easy

Yup, in the spark plugs. Today, I got new Alt. Belt, P.S. Belt, Timing Belt, Valve Cover Gasket, and Engine Degreaser. Will get it all on on Friday. Will post results.
