Rick, I am not looking at a Toyota, I am looking at the picture where you see an A2 in the background. You see the missing left hand side rack but a civvy steering on the right hand side. Or, as said, my eyes...

Horst, Now that I look again I see the front fender profile and all the correct markings on the rear panel. You can see the original hole where the steering was in the dash. I would love to see the rest of the linkage.

It appears to be coming from the valve cover. Is the PCV valve working and not clogged up? That would cause pressure in the engine and oil leaks. Also if that distributor is not sealed it will leak. What is that distributor out of? How is it mated to the original drive? The only way to know for sure is to clean the whole engine and then watch closely for where it starts to come out.

Modern computer controls work wonders. The old 71 horsepower engine is straining to push the 151 around so it use more fuel and does so inefficiently.

@rickf my mechanic offered me that he can install injectors in engine and the engine will become efi like modern engines and then there will be no function of carburetor.
This will reduce fuel comsumption and increase power.bit still I want to keep it as original

How many miles do you think you'll have to travel in order to make that conversion worth while?

I'm trying to imagine/comprehend all of the sensors required to run EFI being grafted onto a 151 engine...
