This sounds a lot like my problem, when I left Reading Sunday morning, it was about 25 degrees, I got right on the turnpike at 70MPH, at the first stop 60 miles in, I had lost almost a quart of oil and the whole underside of the car was dripping with oil.

After I filled the oil, I didn't lose any noticible amount of oil the rest of the trip (over 700 miles).

I'm off to check all the vacuum hoses and replace the PCV valve, but I have a feeling I'm in for a new front seal. Oh well, 216,000 miles isn't bad, but I was hoping for 250,000 miles before I needed any non routine engine work.
