The oil is only on the passenger side of the engine, which is where the oil filter is located.

Found it on part of the wiring harness, a couple of connectors and one sensor running to the turbo charger, timing chain cover, one of the idler/tensioner, passenger side fan assembly, on some of the plastic clips and trim surrounding the radiator, turbo heat shield, etc.

It was pretty much all located on the passenger side of the front of the engine so it could be a crack or just sloppy workmanship.
I just had a look then with a fairly bright torch and it looks like the ring surrounding the oil filter has been cleaned and there are some marks on the grill that looks like something has been sprayed on and dripped all over the place.
