1. By some "Gunk" (engine cleaner) and spray her down at the local spray n wash.
2. Get to work on the cleaning - Try not to dousch your distributor/CAP/Carb (if applicable)
3. Once clean, drive it for a day and examine where the leaks are coming from.
4. You may need to replace your timing cover gasket which is good becuase you will be able to inspect your oil pump, guides etc.
5. Your filter gasket may be compromised. That is an inexpensive replacement.
The only way to really get a handle on the leaks is to clean it first then inspect.
