oil leak but I can't find the source

First off, I have changed all the seals in the front of the engine a little over a year ago and also the cam cover gaskets including the washers. Well now my car is leaking oil from the front right corner of the engine, it is coming from behind the plastic shield, not the front most one but the one that is attached to the engine, and since the clearance is so limited there without removing several things it is hard to tell just what is leaking.. What I am wondering is,, do you think it is the cam seal leaking even though it has been replaced or is there something else behind there that would be leaking,, I also removed the cam cover again on that side to make sure the gasket didn't slip when I was installing it earlier.. I tried to look at diagrams and the only seals I can find are the ones on the camshaft , I don't think it is coming from above where the plug thing is on the end but not totally sure.. Anyway. any help will be appreciated as it is too cold outside to do a lot of hit or miss investigating. Thanks. Vernon.
