My 'how to' stopped my leaks but I wasn't losing anything like 2 litres in 2 weeks. It is a bugger, I was thinking to run some chalk lines in different places to see if I could track were most of the leak was coming from before I found Whoosa how to. You might need to try that at different heights etc to see where your is coming from.
Good luck UK

Keep in mind that the cam sensor has an o ring on it as well. It will look like a crank seal gone bad. But that amount of oil, may well be the tensioner if the leak is around the front of the engine.
