Question Help with oil droplets?

OK. I have a 964 and it had its share of oil leaks. I had a top down repair / replacement of the cam shaft and valve covers. I also had a leaky power steering hose replaced. Some of the leaks stopped - however still with a leaking (a slow seeping really) case bolt (at least that is what my mechanic says). I have a K&N air filter installed.

The problem - after a spirited highway drive, I notice oil droplets on the rear bumper (mid section - top and some on the rear section by the license plate). Also notice droplets on the middle Porsche reflector and the engine hatch below the engine spoiler. ??? Any thoughts.

Oh yes, my mechanic also mentioned that I may have some "blow by". Not really sure what the signs / symptoms would be of this - but it is additional info.

Any input is welcomed as I am trying to figure out my next steps.

(Oh yes - I also removed my engine pan / under tray - as I thought the oil was sitting in it and some how splashing up - no difference with it off.)

Thanks

Rob
