It sounds like around the oil pump drive that takes place of the distribitor,It is sealed with an O ring that dries up and is a very common problem.Most parts stores sell this O ring and is a special O ring.Make sure to lube the O ring up with grease so you don't cut it when putting the oil pump drive back in
