So, Friday was the last time i drove the car, a that night i saw a oil mark (little) below the passenger wheel since it was small i decided to let it go, so i see the car till yesterday when i was mounting some rims.. The oil mark was HUGE (it was dry) but it was huge when i took out the passenger wheel.. well the "wall" behind the wheel had a "watermark" of oil i checked the oil level and i THOUGHT it was fine but since i don't have oil in my house and it seems that is only when I'm driving (noticed some withe smoke lately) i don't know what it could be..

Oh yeah like a month or so ago i replaced the front valve cover gasket since my uncle said that was where it was leaking oil (my uncle did it), if someone could tell me what it could be, since i don't work and i don't have any money to go to a mechanic but could squeeze some money for a part, so i could do the labor

If it's on the wheel, your cv joint boot is torn and oil is spilling out. www.motorvate.ca has a guide on how to fix the problem.

CV boots contain grease, not oil. Grease does not drip.

Try to pinpoint the location of the leak better (i.e. oil pan, oil pressure switch, etc.) then check back. Too vague to help much right now.

well the thing is that i dont know EXACTLY where is it leaking, and it cannot be the cv joint because i doesn't click when i turn, i also have noticed for quite a while that something in that area sounds when im hitting like 1,000 or so RPM's like a vibration, my uncle said it was a chain or belt maybe.. heres a videoclip of the sound (little dark but you only need to hear...

its most likely the oil filter, its right there, check the filter for leaks. some times its a little dirt in between the oil filter gasket and mounting plate.
