Default Spitting oil

I have a 2001 Audi S4. I took lunch one day and when I came back out, my car decided to spit most of its oil out. I have nbo problem building boost or anything else. I got it back home, cleaned it up and topped off the oil. Start it back up and 20 seconds later it spits the oil back out from behind the timing cover.
I have had the timing belt and all the seals replaced back in Nov. 2012. Never had an issue till the other day. I was curious could the diverter valve stuck close and built too much boost? Everything is still stock except exhaust. My car has 134,XXX miles on it at the present time. Any and all help/advise greatly appreciated.

Thanks in Advance,
Glenn

From behind the timing cover? There are only a few places involved there: cam seals, front main seal, and the timing chain tensioner/VC if it drips into the cover.
