Default oil leak

i have an oil leak in my 93 90, i can't find where its leaking. when i changed my oil it didn't leak untill a few minutes after i started so that tells me its leaking during circulation and not fromt the pan. should i just pull it apart and replace my gaskets? i have a kit. but i just don't want to tear down if i don't know where the problem is coming from.

Always look at what you touched first. Drain plug and filter of course.
