00 A6 2.8 avant quattro oil leak
I have had an oil leak for a wile, I had a shop do the valve covers, and it did slow it down but it still leaks and slowly getting worse again, I know there are several different places it could be leaking, but is it easy to to my self or should I just live with it? taking it to a shop is out of the question for now

Whether it's easy enough for you to do depends on your experience, your collection of tools, and your knowledge and willingness to get dirty. It also depends on where the leak is coming from. You'll have to narrow that down before anyone can help with any of this.

I did the water pump my self 6 month ago I have tools, I am capable but not experienced, there is oil on the front driver side of the motor but I can't tell where its coming from and there is oil on the back passenger side of the motor I know there are the camshaft seals or a breather hoses, but I can't find anything on how to check or how to do the repare

It could also be a cam seal or half moon seal. Or the cam tensioner seals, or if the valve cover gaskets weren't done exactly right, they could be leaking again as well. It'll probably require you to move/remove some parts and look down in with a dental mirror and/or flashlight to see where exactly the oil is coming from.
