Default Oil Leak from 940 Estate (station wagon)

Hi I'm new to this post and I'm english so some of the vehicle terms are a bit different to me. I've searched all 123 pages and can't find the same query as mine.

I have a 95 940 2.0 non turbo and it has an oil leak form the engine. I don't know where it is coming from and I'm stuck. I've replaced the Rocker Cover (top of engine) gasket but this hasn't solved the issue. Please help as oil is getting on the exhaust manifold and smoke bellows from the bonnet (hood) most of the time

Thanks for your help and guidance

Dobbersky

I'm English, living in America, I'll translate.

Most of them leak oil, its thought of as typical due to the alum head on an iron block.
Mone leaks but not enough to smoke. (ye

If you're loosing a lot oil and its becoming a problem you're due for a head gasket, its not a big job, its made simple because theres no timing chain to deal with, just a rubber timing belt.
