Your initial fotos are quite detailed(large scale), so we can't identify the place where pictures are taken... Could you take a few general fotos... and point with any graphics editor the place where oil leaks?

Moreover, simulteneously (I may assume you're not Russian language native speaker) you could check the site
ссылка - there people are talking in English and you may ask about your problem there :-)))

Just a few assumptions:

1) Do you really believe it's a motor oil? (not power steering fluid or cooling fluid?)
2) Are you sure that all new seals have been installed properly and are not damaged? Because sometimes that may happen.

Most likely, this leak is connected to a ventilation system launches. Somewhere tube broke. And the fact that the oil gets into the intake system is bad. There is a strainer that holds the oil. Perhaps it should be cleaned. I'm sorry for my English - it's translator Google

i'll make quallity picture.timming belt area is dry, wet is intake manifold thats why i'm interesting what can cause oil leak in that area. the main problem is that this place is very bad, i can't check everything well.thank very much for comment , i'll try rav4world

thank you for comment. i think best choise is to remove intake manifold and check. i was looking in my garage and i didn't guess how can i remove it without take out engine. manifold nuts is in the back of the engine

Check carefully the cover place and gasket. :-) Gasket could not be properly applied and leakage may simply occure in that place. The engine is a placed under small angle to the "motor area" that's why oil may leak from back side of the cover... My old RAV 95 has oil signs there :-))) Not a leakage but... signs of it...

ну перевести то я одолел со своими скромными знаниями технического английского, а вот на фото нифига не понял откуда, где куда, подтёки, обвести бы надо на фотках

По фоткам я вроде как разобрался, "что где", а вот 100% уверенности в том, что это именно моторное масло - нет... Ну, посмотрим, может, он сможет сделать ещё фотки...

Ну вы, блин, и даёте... молодцы!

судя по фото, это сторона движка от моторного щита. масло бежит из под прокладки клапанной крышки, было такое. поменял проклаку, все равно там было масло. не знал где уже искать. в итоге "химическая" мойка движка и там сухо.
