Please help! Have quite a large leak and has come after doing a full service on the car, Its in the little gap in the picture around the 4 black circles on the top of the engine near the front.Only seems to happen while engines running as theres never a puddle under the car but my oil is drastically lowering and there are puddles on top of the engine.

we donhave your vehicle in U.S. and pic didn't come through but it has to be in a pressure area so see if there is an oil pressure sending unit where it's leaking that may be bad.
