Where is this oil leak!!!!

Under my car there is a serious oil leak that I cant figure out where its from. My passanger side manifold after the turbo is completely coated with oil. I lost 3 qts of oil in two days, after I turn off the car it rains from the passanger side like no other. Can swivel AN fittings leak and spray fuel everywhere from only a 40 psi oil line? I cant figure out how all this oil is getting everywhere!!! the turbo is mounted by the block above the starter. Is the drain line able to build large amounts of pressure at WOT? At heavy throttle a LARGE puff of smoke comes out the back, its pretty bad. I had two people hold cardboard directly after each manifold and see if the oil was shooting out the exhaust and it wasnt. Im not sure what to look for now!!!

So is it oily on the back of the passanger head? I had a problem similar. It would just start pissing oil. It was comming from the back of the head. For some reason it was leaking toward the top where the head close to where the intake meets the head. The fix was running a bead of silicone along the head and the block alll the way up to where the intake would slap on. hope this makes sense...But I know where your at, this never happend to anyone else, and I was like WTF
