I am of the opinion that this type of oil leaks can be caused by blocked engine breathers. Crankcase pressure will build up to leak out of the seals and gaskets, taking the oil with it.
i think its what i experience(d). i had cracked vacuum hoses, and probably bad PCV valve, and was leaking the oil from everywhere
mainly cam seals.

now replaced PCV and vacuum hoses, breathing hoses and wounder whats the result. If the dipstick does not pop up again does it mean that ventilation system works fine?

ill clean the underengine and will let you if it stopped the leaking oil.
