Weird Oil Leak 850

I've noticed that every time I open the hood, there are small pools of oil in the front of the engine bay on top of the head light assemblies on both sides and on top of the electric cooling fan for the radiator. Pools really isn't the best word to describe them but they are there every time I open the hood. It is definitely oil, and I have no idea where it is coming from. I've had to add about a quart of oil every few weeks and I don't think the car is burning oil and there isn't evidence of oil leaking beneath the car. It must be spraying from some where but both the oil cap and dipstick look like they are fine and don't show evidence of this.

Anyone encounter this before?

Thanks!
