I have a S14 SR20DET in a S13 hatch. When I was driving on I-95 I could smell oil so I shut the car off and pulled over. When I opened the hood the whole front of the engine was soaked in oil. I pulled the dipstick and I still have oil in it but also all over it. I read the the front cover is a low oil pressure area.. so I dont know if its coming from the front crank seal or the cover itself.

Too much pressure in the crank case. Do you have a catch can?
