I've seen this when oil comes out of the dipstick (it seeps paste the join in the plastic cambelt cover) and when a camshaft oil seal wasn't seated properly.
I suppose it could also be crankshaft oil seal or the head gasket when the main oil galley is.

This is presuming you run a full cambelt cover?
