oil leak, car bogging really bad, related?

ok i have a 93 si h23 with a lot of bolt ons and free mods done. its been driven hard for about 20k miles since i had my head p&p and my cam gears put on. now i have oil leaking from around the cam gears somewhere. is there a seal that could blow around the cam gearsor is it most likely the valve cover gasket? also this just happened tonight, i was driving normal for about 20 min and go to really get on it in 2nd gear and my car bogs down really bad, almost feels like a misfire and when i rev it sounds like a misfire too. i can take it to any rpm and it is fine it only does this at wot. but i let it cool down and now it has stopped. my first thought maybe i sucked in some water through my cai but my filter was dry so if someone else has any suggestions lemme know

Could be a cam seal leaking, almost a common problem, pretty cheap/easy to fix.

Does it bog at any speed as long as you are WOT?
Have you checked the TPS sensor? Might be off.

You said you have free mods done, would one of these mods be where you change the throttle cable tension somehow?
