Ive never worked on a boxster, but fairly familiar with general auto.

My first thought was a cracked block or gasket.

However, the oil is pure..no water,coolant or anything. There is no white or blue smoke when it fires up. No knocking or any unusual noise. And it doesnt drip..it POURS. Not as much as when you take the oil pan plug out...But closer to that then a drip. Completely quits when the engine stops. After I wipe the filter cap and above. Not a single drip afterwards.
