I have a pretty big oil leak in front of the engine and can’t see where it is from, it is wet all the way behind the alternator, anyone ever had that kind of leak?

I am losing coolant in the expansion tank and can't find any leak anywhere so my guess is water pump. The thing is i don't see any sign of coolant in the oil, for those who had a bad water pump, were you able to tell from the oil? Usually the oil gets foamy and you can see some white residue in...
