Oil leak front of engine 335xi 2008

Hey guys what’s up, so I Finally fixed my power steering leak and my mosfet issue, now I have a oil leak to tackle, it’s at the front of the engine, replaced OFHG, valve cover, camshaft sensors o rings, my next thing is vanos solenoids gaskets but i don’t see oil near them, it seems to Be right under we’re the head gasket meets the engine, I’m gonna take pictures right now and show you guys, I just cleaned it tho but I’ll drive it around and take more pictures again... it’s getting on my belts and scared it’s gonna snap off and cause more problems, oh and I replaced, the front crank seal as well so I’m lost any help would be great, crossing my fingers isn’t not a external head gasket leak...


Thanks guys any help would be great!


Last picture is the one you see the oil leak, it’s has a tint of green bc I used and engine dye to locate leak but it’s very difficult
