Is it possible that you have a valve cover gasket thats leaking? One way to possibly tell where its coming from is to wipe everything down and get it dry as best you can. Get some baby powder or talcum powder and dust it on the side of the engine you think the leak is coming from. Run the engine a bit and see where the powder is now wet. Id lean toward a leaky valve cover gasket first. The valve covers are easily bent out of shape from over torquing the bolts.
