oil spill/noise 700 1990

Does the oil on the dipstick appear normal and smell like oil, or does it smell like fuel? If oil, take it back to the change place, it appears they overfilled it.
Oh, it'd be nice to use comma's, makes your prose more poetic. Kinda hard to read there, you know?
Today I found to oil marks in my driveway opened hood and found oil spill all over the front into hoses,around oil dipstick, into the electric fans even in the cover of hood.
I think this says you found (2) spots of oil in the driveway. Then, there was oil all over, including on the hoses and even into the electric fans? Both, including the one behind the grille, the pusher fan?
If the car still runs, maybe take it to a car wash and try to get some of the oil off, and see where there's a leak. Maybe a seal has popped out?
Hard to tell about the vibration being related, don't have a guess there just now.
