Magical oil leak

Good. Do you have a computer based camera that you could mount and have a passenger observe while you are driving ? Might be a way to see what's going on.

Funny enough I just purchased a small action cam. I'm also ordering a small borescope that will connect to my tablet so I can run it up behind the flex plate and hopefully get a visual of the plugs to see if they're wet with oil. Might be a few days before I get to see the real leak. But I do plan on putting in a new cam, so if I have to pull the engine to fix oil plugs I won't be too butthurt haha.

Edit I also did a real stupid thing and lifted the car securely and then let it idle while I shimmied underneath to see if I could see an active leak.... and nothing it was dry as a bone, up until it sat back down and oil dripped from inside the trans housing.
