Unhappy Oil Leek! HELP!!!!!!!!!

Sprung an oil leek yesterday up the pod. Its coming from the drivers side. In the right hand wheel arch there was quite a bit of moisture and as you look down ont he flat part of the inner wing too. It was dripping a fair amount whilst parked up too. Any ideas what it could be? any common problems?

Its a MY99 Type R V limited

Could be the old favourite offside rocker/cam cover gasket, is dripping on exhaust and making foul smell for a short period until it all burns off.
Its a common one!!
