Default oil leak

Hey guys so I just noticed a good amount of oil leaking from my 97 ti but I am not quite sure what the exact diagnosis is. I do not believe it is a bad head gasket because the top of the engine is clean and there is no sign of oil near the top of the engine. Its underneath that is a problem. Underneath is a mess of grease and oil, not just in one concentrated spot but spread around to almost the whole front of the bottom of the car. The oil pan, near the underside of the radiator, by the ac lines, and just seems like everywhere. Because of it being everywhere I am thinking that it isnt just a dripping leak but a kind of spraying? I am not sure. Maybe just a hole in a hose, or a bad clamp somewhere...what else could be causing this? If anyone has some information or similar problems on their car in the past I would really appreciate your input! Thanks guys
