Oil Leak Help - PICS

Removed the pulley. I bought a new crank seal. Took the old one out but I don't see any traces of oil around the seal. There's so much gunk and oil build up on the bottom right of the crank case. I did the pan gasket 2 times, also resealed the oil filter housing, still leaking same, really fast. What should I do?

look like its from top down...best way is clean up the gunk really good...add some oil dye and run it....could be something that you miss...

when you putting back the oil pan bolts, did you add some liquid silicone gasket around the thread? look like some oil around the head bolts of the oil pan

valve cover gasket
oil filter housing seal
crankshaft seal
oil pan gasket..

those are pretty common leaks...

and you said you done oil pan and oil filter housing gasket.. double check again..possible that gasket for the oil filter housing is pinch...

best way is to start over and clean and diagnose the leak again...
