Zetec camshaft oil leak

I have a small oil leak from front of the inlet cam around the seal i think. Have put new cam seal in and new camcover gasket but still leaking, any ideas thanks

Not sure but could be down to breather filter blocking up/crankcase pressurisation?

Cheers

have you had the cams out if so it could be leaking from under the end cam carrier cap a small amount of sealer under the cap may sort it

Pressure build up in the crankcase due to high boost?
