Oil leak after head rebuild.. HELP
2008 A4 Quattro 2.0T FSI
Rebuilt cylinder head and all is good now except for now there is a nasty oil leak at the rear of head. Seems to "spray" out all over the firewall and cat converter only when driving. Can't tell if it leaks at idle though. Oil found around timing chain cover, HPFP, engine cover where the most rear cover mount is. Cam/timing chain cover is new. I have no idea where this leak is coming from
any ideas?

It ended up being the timing chain cover gasket folded when I redid the cam bearing cap. Replacing the gasket again should fix it. Thanks for the help..
