My 1996 GT is now leaking oil. Leak appears to be coming from the passenger side, about 2 feet from the front tire (maybe a bit less). I took a look in there but its pretty wet. Lots of drip points and I can't really tell where its comming from. Also, after driving on the freeway I can smell the oil burning and smoke starts to appear. I am assuming the oil is dripping on something hot and burning off. The leak doesn't happen while the car is sitting cold. Only seems to happen after a drive while its cooling down. Its not a small drip either, its a pretty big puddle. The more I drive the more it leaks. Any ideas?

I would say it's probably your oil pump, one of the seals. You can buy a new pump or buy all the seals for like $8, There's 3 of them.
