Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I just fixed my Valve cover gasket because it
was spitting out oil through the cover. I now
have a leak From  underneath dripping on
my catalytic converter. Do you know when it
could be coming from?

Forgot to mention that any oil leak above valve cover will lean left and to the firewall, then will drip on exhaust. Engine leans towards passenger side and towards firewall.
