Another oil leak

I had two mayor oil leaks on my 86 Carrera. The first was the oil return tubes. So i changed them



The second was the oil line to the right chaintensioner. So I changed it



I let the engine run for 30 minutes and its was dry as a bone. After that I didn't run it for about three weeks and all was well. No drops of oil under the engine. But about a week ago it started to leak again. And in a bad way.



It looks like the gasket between the casecover of the right chain. But how can it be that it's dry for three weeks and than without the car having been moved or started it starts to leak?

Got the gasket for the cover but man these oil leaks are wearing me down
