Hello I have a problem with fiat punto, I noticed him running out of oil from the engine and as you can see in the pictures. :(

I repaired the engine before 5 or 6 months.I fix the cylinder head and valves please I need some advice (i love fiat punto :D ) and i hope this is not so bad.
 
That looks like the O-ring seal between the coil pack and the cylinder head has failed. Fairly common and not a big deal - don't panic :). Should be lots of threads here about it and probably in the sticky section as well.

I have a comment about you first picture. The battery box appears to have been cut to fit a larger than normal battery. It is not sitting in the base but riding on top. The only thing holding it there is the clamp across the top which may not be enough under heavy braking or a collision. If it slides forward the positive terminal could contact the clamp and start a fire.
I would respectfully suggest you look into some extra restraint for the battery or fit a protective cover on the +ve terminal or find a larger battery box from perhaps a diesel Punto in a scrapyard.

This is what it would have looked like from new.

I'd go with coil pack O ring also.
 
In the UK - that seal leaks all the time :) and most people leave it

People on here love to get dirt and fix it :D

My vote is Coil pack seal as well

As for the battery - if its not sitting on the flat part - id chop the edges off so the battery CAN sit flat, and then you can tackle the strap
