motor oil spraying :/

Het Mustang family,
my '01 GT is playing some games on me and it is spraying small amounts of motor oil on my firewall, transmission hoses, valve covers, coil packs on cylinders #4 and #3 on the passenger side. I've checked the valve covers and they are secured and snug. Anything I should be on the lookout for to try and stop this problem?

Rear main seal possibly.

Ill check it out. It's spraying everywhere but not bad. It's a really fine mist so it's just getting everything messy and slowly losing oil from the motor. I'm going to clean it and see if I can see where it's coming from next time I run it.

How would the oil be getting on top of my intake from that and on cylinders #4 and #3?
