Simple. Degrease the area around the oil filter housing and the front of the engine, drive the car and see where the oil is coming from. Keep in mind when the oil filter housing leaks, it often drips oil on the power steering pulley and it gets slung around on the lower timing cover near the crank pulley, then sucked under the engine onto the oil pan and transmission, so it may be a little misleading. If you notice any oil on or underneath the oil filter housing after degreasing and driving, chances are it's the oil filter housing that's leaking.
