Get one of those mirrors on an extension rod. From underneath, run the mirror along the parts you can't see easily from underneath. Same along the top from the front of the van. Leaks are sometimes difficult to locate. It also could be a stripped/under tightened bolt allowing the gasket to leak despite replacement.
Another method is to add an ultra violet dye pack to the oil. run it for 10 or so miles and then use a UV light to spot the source of the leak.
Sensors sometimes blow the interior seal and leak but these usually are easy to find/spot.
As always, good luck with your project!

thanks for the advice mate but i got it on to a ramp to day and the back of the engine and gear box are covered in oil looks like it needs a good steam clean before i will be able to see where its leaking from do you know of any common places where they might leak from.
