Exclamation Oil leak problem

Hi,
I have a problem with the oil leak to my W211 Kompressor 1.8 petrol.
The oil flows from the front of the engine, both from the left and from the right. A month ago, I went to the service and changed both rubber seals, but the problem continues.
Do you know what the problem is and how it can be solved?

Thank you!

You will not be able to tell from that picture.

Suggest you take the engine cover off, then spray down the area with brake cleaner to clean the area thoroughly. Go for a drive. Then see where a new oil leak appears. That will give you a clue where to look.

I have attached a video to the post, which shows very well where the oil flows from, if you can check, please.
