Continuing 850 oil leak problems! 850 1995

There's several possibilities.

Do you see white smoke from under the hood? Can you physically SEE the oil leak? You could be leaking from a front or rear seal, or from the pan gasket, which would be pretty hard to see without having the car up. If it was a valvecover leak you should be able to see the oil leak pretty clearly.

Here's what you can do, go get your motor steam-cleaned. Then look for the leak. It'll be pretty visible then (should be anyhow).
