Default Multiple Oil Leaks

ok.. so i had my car on a lift its a 95 Honda accord LX 2.2L... and saw oil through the bottom.. so i cleaned it up..
where the 1st major leak is, i was told it's the "rear main seal" which requires to take out the transmission to get to and its like a $5 part.. lol ridiculous..
the 2nd i cant seem to figure out but its commin from the Timing Belt area...
i was told for the rear main seal its about $500 to do
i dont have this money because i'm moving from Miami to Phoenix AZ, towing the Accord ofcourse.. i leave Jan.8th
now i used a thicker oil Castrol GTX 10W40 and added the Lucas to it to help a little..
but it think the seal is getting worse..
any suggestions how to help the problem untill i get the money to get it fixed?
and is there anyone in Phoenix that can help out that knows a good mechcanic with good prices?

The leaks on the face of the motor could be one of the shaft seals or the 'oil pump' seal.

There is a slimy grease monkey [sm=icon_rofl.gif] on this website from Tucson Az. He might know someplace in Phoenix.
