When the car is turned on the oil is spitting out the oil from the front area of the motor

Any type of oil can cause problems to areas not designed to have oil on lt. Make concern is to repair your oil leak as soon as possible. Sounds like it could be your camshaft front seal. Or a simple valve cover gasket.

Sounds like you might have damaged intake valves and worn piston rings.

Could be clogged fuel injectors. I had a problem similar to this. Car ran okay on flat areas but would spit and sputter going up inclines. I took mine to an oil change place and they ran a cleaner through the system. This fixed the problem and I put an injector cleaner in with every 3rd tank of gas to keep this from happening again.

most probably from the front crank shaft seal behind the harmonic balancer or pulley. Check sump gasket in this area as well

try replacing the egr valve

my wife had the same car with the 3.1L motor.they are notorious for the head gaskets. we checked everything on the car. turned out to be a bad piston. do a compression check on the pistons. also chec the oil and antifreeze make sure oil is not frothy. this would indicate a bad head gasket

Have you checked for a PCV valve plugged? Not sure if there is one an that, but would sure look for one. Crankcase ventilation somewhere.

oil filter Is a suspect actually... any oil cooler lines going towards the front front of oil pan etc... lift vehicle and look ccareful at all areas near damaged area ...good luck

It sounds like it could be overfilled, but that will be easy enough to check on the dipstick. Should be checked with the engine idling in neutral. Otherwise, the trans could be overheating, causing the oil to expand to the point that it spits out the breather. Pull the dipstick and check the fluid condition, if it's dark and smells burnt, the trans may be slipping or overheating for some other reason, and it's probably time to get a trans shop involved. You should probably run an auxiliary cooler at the radiator area in the type of application you describe, especially if you're gonna be using the gas pedal fairly heavily! Sounds like a sweet car, lots of fun to be had in something like that.
