Is it engine oil or chain lube? (You said it was coming from the front sprocket)

Engine - check the countershaft seal.

Chain - maybe look at another brand of chain lube...

Some aftermarket countershaft sprockets are just a smidge thinner than stock and will not put the required pressure on the countershaft seal. This will cause leaks. I solved it on my 200sx by putting an O-ring behind the sprocket.
