Default unknown oil leak

I have a 2001 ss with a vortech supercharger, I have an oil leak that migrates downward but I can't identify it. It is not the supercharger since i had it rebuilt and I installed an inline catch can to the pvc line but I am still getting oil were the mass air sensor is and the throttle body and leaking down the right and left side of the motor. I was blowing the dipstick out and blowing oil all over the motor but I have tied that down and there is no oil on the top of the motor just below the lower half. There is no slug on the dipstick so I do not think it is the head gasket. I beleive it may be a ring or something internal. Please anyone with some insight on what tests to run or were to start, I think I may have to rebuild my motor.
