What are some common oil leaks on these engines? I have been looking around on mine and it is coming from the driver side. It is so hard to see anything from below or above on the car when it’s assembled, but if I reach deep down to the rear driver side corner of the rear valve cover I can get some oil on my fingers, it appears to run down the head and block and there is oil on the driver side control arm and then drops down the pan. I think the valve cover is the majority of the leak. Is this a common place? Thanks.

Yes, valve cover gasket leaks are very common. Because these cars are getting fairly old some other leak points include the cam seals (both ends, back side is just a cap), rear main seal, front main seal, oil pan (usually only if someone else removed it and didn't reinstall it properly), oil filter housing/mount.
