About a month ago, I had a problem with my 95 leaking a large amount of oil from the front cam seals. I had the seals replaced and it continued to leak. It turned out that the oil drains behind the seals had clogged causing oil to pool and blow by the seals. After the car was parked a puddle about 6" round would form. Half of the seals in the car were replaced before the dealer came back around and figured out what the problem really was, because they insisted the cam seals were not leaking.

If it turns out not to be the line you think it is try looking under the timing belt cover.
