You have a lot of miles which is no big deal, but you have also accumulated a lot of sludge. If you have a turbo, you need to clean out the PCT(PTC) which is located on the air intake tube before the turbo. NA models need to have the PCV cleaned along with the hoses. In both cases, you need to examine the vacuum lines associated with the oil separator(under the intake manifold).

A front oil leak in a turbo car can be from the oil cooler lines. An NA car could be experiancing oil blowing out of the top of the dipstick. You need to find the source.
