Oil is being blown out from front of engine. seems to be engine oil. yet, when it is running, no leak is seen. the timing chain was repaired a year ago so all the seals and gaskets should still be in good shape. can not get a definate location where it is coming from. it sprayed the frame underneath, front of engine oily,had it up on ramps, watched it, no leak. real head scratcher.
The front of engine is usually where the serpentine belt is located. The side of the engine toward the front of vehicle is different. I'm not trying to split hairs, Just trying to understand? Is it coming out in the area of the belt?
When you had it on the ramps, was the engine running? One thought is too much crankcase pressure?
There is, the oil filter could leak, oil pan gasket, head gasket. Is there oil in the coolant or coolant in the oil? It's tough to find a leak if it isn't leaking when you check it.

the head gaskets are blown you can believe that anytime on any engine gas or deisel that you get oil in the radiator and there water/ antifreeze in the oil pan the gaskets and or cylinder heads are bad

No. The crankshaft pully can be removed through the right wheel well area. (This is the hard part) Once the pully is off, the seal is relatively easy to change.
