Things were going well, and then I noticed a huge oil leak on the floor...bigger than usual on my 1977 MGB.

I've attached photos of the general region that is "leaky" - these are all on the driver's side)Any ideas of where to start to try and plug this?

Looks like the tappet covers. Moss sells an up grade that is rubber, not cork.
This job can be labor intensive at times.
