Default Messy spraying Oil leak everywhere, valve cover or camshaft?

about a weak ago I noticed oil on the passanger side engine compartment. The oil is only present when driving it and it has been getting worse. oil seems to be spraying all over on the left side. I thought it might be coming from a bad valve cover seal so I checked it, it seemed the gasket had slipped so I installed a new gasket. I just drove it again today and the problem is still there. Only on the passenger side and oil everywhere. Is it my camshaft seal? If so why would it just be on the left side on not oil everywhere?? I also just noticed for the first time the dreaded puff of blue smoke on startup. Started to get really worried
