Is it in a line front to back situated on the left hand [pass] side directly over the belts? This is very common and just means one of your seals has started to leak and the belts are throwing oil on the hood and firewall. Don't sweat it - they start doing that with pretty low mileage and it's not usually alot - just keep an eye on how much oil your engine uses to determine if it's excessive or not.

hmmm - that doesn't sound like wat I was talking about. You need to get that figured out before you starve your engine.

How about you post a GOOD pic of the oil splash [the whole underside of the hood] and one of the engine bay and let's see what we can find.

Ahh, you have a turbo.
I saw GT with no 5SFTE mentioned.... Your BOV/BPV is venting the oil from your PCV system. Which means you have a lot of blowby. Normal on turbo cars, to an extent. Yours sounds a bit excessive. Most likely either you have worn compression rings or the PCV system is clogged. Or your turbo is leaking out the intake seal. -------------------- |

That too.
 I didn't bother to go back and check, I "remembered" seeing GT. Pics will help, but if he's got a turbo, that's the most likely source, it was my first thought, but I didn't see any mention of a turbo so I didn't bother....
