Exclamation oil leak have no clue what it is

i have a 2004 dodge 2500 4x4, i noticed it was leaking alot of oil it just started 3 days ago i washed the spot so i could trace where it was comming from. it is ozzing out from in between the steel block and aluminum cover that the fan is attached to i belive it is where the timing chain is i could see that there was a gasket there, it only leaks when the truck is running. is this a simple fix i can do my self or what might it be? or does it need to go to the shop

I would try and tighten the cover bolts and see if one is loose that could stop it
