Default RE: Leaking oil

The mechanic wanted to try changing some easier seals first and see what happens. Ended up changing 3 but I forgot to ask which ones. Only charged $45 for parts because he said the job was pretty easy so didn't charge for labor. He said that it's unlikely the valve seal because he changed that one with the timing belt at 90k miles. The leak in the engine bay that I posted pics of is gone and I still can't really tell if it's leaking on the ground since the old oil spots are still on the ground. I'll put some newspaper or something and see if it still leaking tomorrow. Just hope that those seals stopped it because I don't really wana put out the money to change the cam seal.

Any way you can find out which seals/gaskets he replaced? Mine is leaking in the exact same spot. I did a timing belt on this and replaced all seals (cam, crank, balancers, upper and lower plug tubes, and valve cover but there is still a leak in the exact same place as in your pics.
