Default Cant stop oil leak!

After the pan has been removed and both front and rear timing covers i can not get my oil leak to stop. It is leaking back by the oil filter. I just installed a brand new pan and gasket what could it be is there anything back there i could be missing. No it is not the pressure sensor that the top or a valve cover. An put brand new rear main seal in it. ?

Get it cleaned up nice, and run it just long enough
that you can see where the weep starts (ramps).

Sometimes "stuff" happens, like the old oil filter
rubber ring stays with the block when you change
it, etc. and of course if you used a Quicky-Lube
where the high school kids are learning about
righty-tighty part time, anything could.
