Didnt look like it was coming from above but sometimes these are hard to pinpoint.
Thanks
Evo, I would suggest to remove the engine cover and wash the engine, first with a can of engine degreaser, rinse with "Low Pressure water", then spray 'simply green' (to remove the oily residue left by the engine degreaser and finally rinse again with low pressure water (to avoid getting water inside the connectors..

Then, you should be able to see the source of the oil leak, could be as simple (hopefully) as the o-rings seals of the spark plug tubes, as these are fairly easy to replace, but first you need to know where the oil is coming from.. Good luck!
