2000 BMW 323 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Manual 117K miles

I have a 2000 BMW 323ci, Ive noticed an oil burning smell and you wont feel the car accelerate in 5th gear, I have checked my engine and there is no visible oil anywhere. I went to a shop just to get an opinion but they cannot pin point what the problem is. They suggested me to go to BMW which I am avoiding because it will cost a lot. I went to another shop and they suggested me to change all my sparks plug. so I did and I saw where the oil is coming from, as I was opening the last sparks plug (the 6th cylinder) I see oil all over the cup (before you get to the sparks plug) there's no oil inside just the top. even though I can see the oil but I cannot tell where its coming from. not really sure whats the next step, I dont have the money to diagnose the car at the dealer. I hope and wish that I can get an answer and instruction on how to fix my car. Thank you very much.
