First check the drainplug is tight with a new copper washer/gasket. Then check the oil cooler lines and oil cooler for leaks. The front cover on the engine usually leaks a bit, but doesn't normally squirt. Then check the drainpan for damage or excessive leaks on one side. Finally check the OMP (oil metering pump) lines, the OMP bolts to the front cover and the lines go up and over the engine.

Same here. Covered it with what must have been half a roll of duct tape and 5 of those metal wrap around thingies and it STILL didint work well enough to get my car home. Had to leave ze TII in a shitty neighborhood until I could get a tow and replacement oil lines from mazdatrix. SS oil lines will NEVAR break!
