Check for any obstructions in the CC breather box, get rid of the filter element and go with the new forever filter insert. Make sure the long hose coming out of the side of the CCB box is clear of any obstructions too... No spider nests and what not.

Myself, when I had a leak like that, I thought it was coming from the oil pan area too... So, I cleaned the oil off of the motor, then went up to NAPA and bought a dozen bottles of that UV die for the Motor Oil, poured it all in the motor, and ran it around for about 1/2 hour 45 minutes... Used the el cheapo UV plastic glasses and penlight UV light to find that leak. It was coming out of the front top cover gasket right there by the CC breather. I removed the cover, bought a new $47 gasket and used RTV to seal it back up. No leak in that area anymore... So, before you go guessing, get some of that UV dye, save yourself a headache and know exactly where the leak is coming from. Get some dye...

Thank you for your reply, change that filter check for blockages and see what happens
