First, do not let the oil leak continue. It is simply too dangerous.

Second the oil leak is most likely a cam cover seal or the base gasket. It could also be excessive blowby if the cam cover hose is off, ruptured, or loose. The simpliest way to tell is to remove the body panels as necessary and watch for oil weeping from the cam cover seal usually at the lowest point while the engine is idling. If you do not see any leakage / weepage then remove the exhaust, the fan cover and the engine cooling shrouds and look at the base gasket.
