I'll try that. I see your reply on 'Bad Oil Leak'

Take your vehicle out to a highway or a road to get the car up to 60-70MPH, then take your foot off the gas and let the car coast for about 10-15 seconds, then give it a lot of gas. If you have a problem with rings or better yet, valve seals, you will get a pretty good puff or cloud of smoke. When you take your foot off the gas the engine goes into high vacuum and will collect oil in the combustion chamber.
Best of luck!
Will try that after I inspect the bottom

Front right I assume. May be a seal/gasket or something as well due to how much it pollutes my cabin.
