I have brought the car to numerous mechanics
to find the oil leak, to no avail.

I noticed recently that the dogbone engine mount
bushings were worn.

Could movement as of a result of worn bushings
cause the engine to leak oil?

Very possible and common if the oil leak coming from the front its the oil pump seal and gasket
and if so have replaced with the timing belt
good luck
