RE: need help finding this oil leak
Try looking at your intake manifold valley gaskets (between the heads). You might want to clean the area off as best you can first, then see if you can find an oil trail after driving it. Could be in the back by the firewall where it's hard to spot.

Could be your rear main seal on a car that old. There's goop you can buy to dump in your oil to get that seal to expand a little and possibly reseal. That may stop your leak. But the only real cure if that is indeed the situation is an engine rebuild. But if it's not the oil pan, it's not the valve cover, or intake gaskets and you're still seeing oil, then it's likely the mainseal in back of the block.
