Cleaned the engine finally and it is the oil meetering pump that's leaking I ordered a gasket to fix it for now but i also blew a Coolant line right under the oil cooler T_T

...which probably means that the oil cooler is leaking too. This is typical. Oil drips down onto the rubber hoses and causes them to detiorate, then finally blow. If so, then you need to replace the orings in the beehive. Not a big job, this was the first repair I ever made on my car.

Good luck. :)
