Oil Leak in a STS Car.
I did some searches but, didn't find anything similar.
Here is my problem:
I can take my camaro out for a 1/2 hour and beat the hell out of it (almost constant full boost) around town and everything is fine, no problems. If I take it for an hour drive down the highway, I have oil running from the back of the motor to the cat. I drove the car 1 hour yesterday parked in my buddies drive and left 5 drops of oil?
What you guys think, I see no leaks anywhere? Rear Valve Cover Pass Side? I did remove the valve cover in the past.

Pull the inspection cap from your tranny and see if there is oil in the bell housing, if so, Rear Main Seal is leaking, and if it is you need to not drive it or get it fixed, the oil will eat up your clutch like mad. Check the valvecovers and see if the gasket got pinced or if you simply forgoto to plug some of the PCV system back in (I dont see it leaking as much as you say from just the PCV system, but who knows) There is ALOT of possiblities, on mine it was leaking from pores in the block, thats why I have a new motor going in tomorrow!
