Well without looking at the car its going to be hard to tell where the leak is coming from. I would try to isolate where it is coming from. Things to consider, oil pan gasket, front main seal, rear main seal but those will all be lower on the car. Up top its usually the valve cover or the oil filter housing gasket

Low oil pressure is another story. Have you ever shredded your drive belt and had it screw up the front main seal? If so it is common for debris to get in the engine and clog up the oil pickup tube resulting in low oil pressure. Unless there is a major leak somewhere or your oil cap/ oil filter cap is not sealing, that is usually the culprit
