1.6 8v Megane coupe oil leak

[imported_abyss113]

ok peeps just needing some confirmation on what this could be ive been losing oil from just under the manifold really hard to see exactly where it is any chance this could be a head gasket leak a mate of mine said that on some 8v engines it there was an oil pump at the front of the engine that could maybe cause it but he doesnt know but its lost 1 full tank of oil in 200 miles so far so its pretty bad and the smoke is well bloody awful

If it is right under the manifold then it definately sounds like a head gasket.
