Default oil leak problem

hi everyone im now in here and i have a question for you.

i recently swaped a b16 into my ef and of course not every swap gose smoothly, i saw that i was leaking oil from under the car. i thought it was the axle seals so i changed them leaking would not stop. then i changed the oil pan gasket it still leaking. i checked the block no leakst there thank god. so i really dont know where its comming from. if anyone have any knowledge about this i would really need it right now.

Remember: an oil leak never goes up, always down. Follow the oil up the motor and when it gets dry, thats where the leak is. Common ****: distributor o-ring, valve cover gasket, maybe a front main seal.

You'll probably have to take the timing belt cover off then. Could be a cam seal on that side, or the front main. Probably the cam seals.
