2007 Black Tacoma V6

So I have a bit of an issue. I have a 2007 Tacoma V6 and recently I did a bunch of work on it due to some issues I was having after mudding a few too many times. I recently replaced the starter, the alternator, the water pump, the fan clutch, the tensioner pulley, the power steering pump, and the A/C compressor. A few weeks later my drive belt busted and I was on a major freeway so I got off and parked it and the engine was soaked in oil. I've cleaned it off to try and determine where it's coming from but I haven't really been able to identify exactly where it's coming from. All I can seem to tell is that it seems like it's coming from higher up on the engine. Any ideas what it might be? Thanks

Edit: I was driving for about 5-10 minutes after I noticed that the belt popped in order to get off of the freeway... (I know, it was a big mistake)
