Default Oil leak HELP!?

So I have a oil leak and it seems to be leaking somewhere on the driver side, that’s where all the mess underneath the car is at. What could it be?

check valve covers, camshaft sensors. spray down the oil mess with brake cleaner and then u get a fresh look at where the leak is coming from exactly.

Have you done an oil change recently? If so make sure the oil cooler gasket is on correctly. Had no clue how to replace one and I blew through tons of oil and gaskets till I figured out the gasket goes around the small ring and not the large one lol
