Remember that the oil leak doesnt occur atall for the first minute or so of startup, after which time it builds up quickly to approx 1 drip per 1/2 seconds. Its not just a weap at that rate.
well my mate just had this problem,it was a build up of pressure + rocker cover gasket,it sounds exactly the same problem to be honest,bearing in mind after the 5th/6th time he attempted to start the car it lost compression before he got a chance to fix the actual problem!!
