ok so i been having an oil leak for about 6 months now, its about a quart every 2 months... i replaced the valve cover gaskets (v6) and it help a little bit but not much, when the car gets hot smoke comes out of the exhaust manifold, cause its burning oil... i looked under the car and theres oil everywhere, on the outside of the oil filter and on the bottom component of the serpentine belt (i got no idea what it is, its the one closes to the ground)

im replacing my oil pan gasket soon, but the front exhaust manifold still smokes... i dont know what else to look at, which seals? or gaskets?

i don't think anybody can help you here but yourself. YOU need to take stuff off the engine and see what's wrong. clean the engine and locate the leak.

also try taking the timing belt cover off.

the amount of information you posted is similar to saying "there is something broke in my car, what parts should i replace?"
