Oil leak

[Nerissa]

Question my 77 has a major issue with leaking every bit of oil every time I ride. It comes from the left front side mostly. I've replaced the valve cover 4 times. It seems like there is to much compression an it's finding every place it can to get out. What can I do?

Is there a breather plugged ? I do not know much about what you are riding but all engines need a way to relieve crankcase pressure or they will spew oil.

Post clear pic of leak location. "Side" is not specific. Machinery descriptions must be specific to be useful.
