So after 18 months I circled around and made some time to look at where the leak was coming from and noticed is spraying oil from the back of the drivers side just below the valve covers on the head and based on the post below it is a oil press plug that may have blown out due to the pcv valve possibly blocked or failed and the pressure build up may have casused this plug to dislodge.:

I have seen many posts that the PCV valve in the audi's are problematic across all audi models in these years.
