Only the front cam seals will be available during the Tbelt swap. YOU need to find out where the oil is leaking from.
Front of the engine has the oil cooler lines.
Center has the turbo oil return seals.
Rear has the rear main seal, which hopefully it is not.

Pull your dipstick at idle and check if there is air pressure trying to come out of the hole. If so, you need to clean up your PCV system to decrease the crankcase pressure, which can start blowing out seals and cause major repair bills.
