Default kx 100 oil leak

What a time im having with this bike,(kx 100 1999)
first of i noticed oil was leaking from near the oil plug screw so i get a new one with a new gaskets then i notice its still leaking this side from the gear lever side so i cange the seal behind the little sproket which had a chunk out of it so that was pleasing,i thought id cracked it.NOOOOOOOOO

then its leaking again this time its coming from the clutch cover split.
Do i need a new gasket?is there a seal behind their too?
is there a crack in the cover?

What im thinking is the oil presure has started with one leak and as ive fixed one problem the presure has pushed the leak to the next leak hole its the only thing i can think of otherwise it would have been leaking from all three at the same time.....please help me understand this

thanks for your word ive looked on the part diagram already and ordered a gasket incase its leaking through that my question is what seals if any can go behind this cover? it seems to me that the oil sits on top of the gasket so if there are not torqed and sealed it will leak
