Major oil leak after oil change

[Swifty Devil]

Recent replaced the spark plugs. Rocker cover gaskets and spark plug seals. No leaks there...

Replaced the oil with 10w-50 (my mates decision)

Oil filter tight. Sump plug tight...

Now ive noticed its got a fast leak just below the head on the front cylinder bank..

Guessing main seal or balancer shaft seal? Any advice would be great.

See video (may take a while to load)

Crap that looks like it's coming out fast from somewhere. Wouldn't imagine it'll be possible to come out of the rocker covers that fast and wrong place to be the sump bolt. Is there oil on the sump on the other side of the belt tensioner pulley? If it was the cam/crank seals leaking (all of a sudden) then it would usually come down around that side of the sump.

I don't imagine oil from the oil filter would get over to that side of the engine. Also I don't think it'll be the balancer shaft seal

Edit: Also, can't see any video.

did you check the sump gasket seal? could have just completely failed now or a bolt could have come loose from it?

Fixed the issue... leak was on cam gear side so hard to detect. So we basically removed the gasket and put loctite gasket seal along the entire gasket in the cover. Not just the corners and realigned
