Default intermittent oil leak

my 2004 C4S Cab with 52,000 miles on it has developed an intermittent oil leak. It is on the passenger side - 6 inches or so past the exhaust pipes. Any thoughts on likely causes? Pics included. There are 4-5 half dollar sized spots of oil on the garage floor that have developed over the past week and a half.

I can't get a good pick of the valve cover - only have my phone as a small camera in there - the leak is above that hose somewhere - if I stick my hand up and around I can feel left over oil up but I can't really pin point it - at least without lifting the car.
