Have a look behind the cam pulley to see if the seal has popped out. This happened to me awhile back when on on the freeway. LOTS of oil onto the manifold at #1.

It can be temporarily fixed by taking off the cam belt cover for access, and siliconing the seal back in the best you can. Or just push it back in with a putty knife if you're stuck on the road somewhere and maybe it will hold for awhile. Have lot's of oil with you when driving where you need to go. You'll smell it if it pops out. I got home this way.
