Default EF Oil Leak

Hey guys well looks like my EF has sprung an oil leak, the sump gasket is fine and ive nipped up all the bolts and the gasket is in good shape and oil isnt coming from it but it does appear to be comming from the front of the engine above the front of the sump where I think the timing chain assembly is, any ideas what it could be and what im up for?, Im told you need a special tool to get at it also. Anyone recommend any good reasonable mechanics in Gold Coast Area?

Cheers

PS: cant beleive the sump bolts on these are so small im amazed.

sounds like the timing case seal unsure what you have to remove to get at it, but id imagine the usual suspects ( crank pulley and harmonic balancer, waterpump)
