Default Oil (leak??) in odd locations

Hello everyone;

Sadly, my car also suffers from the terrible "burnt oil smell" in the cabin. The pan does not leak for sure and I am "almost" certain the cam covers don't either.

Today I looked at the IMT Sensors and found that the bottom has oil all over it! :







It's on the actual plastic. And yes I have changed both of those gaskets with dealer gaskets

Next I looked at the can cover closer to the engine and it has a oily wet spot ..on top of it. Not like it's dripping down from the cam cover gasket, but on the actual top of the cam cover:










Where is all this oil coming from?? New IMT gaskets and PCV valve last year.
