Your leak is more than likely coming from the crank seal located on your timing cover.

how

i dunnoo...cuz the oil is dripping off the opti from high on top of it(well as far up as i can see) to the bottom, then its falling to the swary bar, then to the ground. but i dont think its coming from the crank seal, if it was, do i have to take the cover off inorder to put a new one on??

You would have to remove the balancer and hub in order to remove the gasket.
