Possibly a hairline crack in the timing chain cover??? when the engine warms up, the aluminum "swells" up and seals the crack????

Do you have access to a lift???? if so, I'd clean up everything as much as possible and put it on a lift and try it again while under it to see if you can find out where the leak is coming from..
