Is the oil filter on tight?
How about the PCV lines? When was the last time you changed the PCV valve?

On the suspicion that the oil filter was somehow causing an overpressure leak, I changed the oil and filter last night. So, I'll see how that goes.
There definitely seems to be oil coming from the top of the motor. Its actually pooling in one of the recesses for bolt holes in the timing belt cover bolt. I've never touched the PCV lines or valve. (One of my goals for the summer is to replace all the rubber lines and PCV/EGR stuff.)
Perhaps I should keep a closer eye on the PS fluid level too.
