Check flame trap. If its clogged you can blow oil out from many places.

Sounds like it, I've seen a clogged flame trap blow out the camshaft and aux shaft seals, it can also blow the rear main (MUCH more work to fix) or the front crankshaft seal, which may as well get changed with the other two front seals.
