My 92 V8 4.2 is leaking... again :(

The problem is engine oil dripping in down on the asphalt in front and on the right side of the engine.
Engine oil is also dripping down/into the timing belt area, but very little onto the timing belt itself.
It's also seeping down on top of the alternator.

This is what's been changed so far:

Cylinder head gaskets (bot left and right) - overhauled the cylinder heads
Intake gaskets
Cylinder head cover gaskets
All o-rings/seals/radial seals in connection with the heads, injectors, distributors etc
Two new oil sensor (the two small ones, not the big one)

...the engine seemed to be okay for about 7-10 days, but now I'm back to square one.
Any ideas?
