just want to make sure that the front main seal or oil shaft is leaking
just want to make sure that the front main seal or oil shaft is leaking
the front weep hole means front main seal?

Could be either, if I'm not mistaken it could even be cam seals, someone correct me if I'm mistaken
Nope, you're rght on both accounts. Could also be the front timing cover gasket, valve cover gaskets, lots of stuff. I would suggest a good cleaning and then run the engine- see if new oil comes out. Oil dye and a blacklight can help if you're dealing with a very smal leak/hard to find. Good luck with the repairs!

We are going to need help on the terminology you are using. The weep hole is the bottom of the water pump which isn't supposed to weep at all. When coolant comes out, it has cast its withers internally. If oil is comming out, you have oil in your coolant.
So what are you talking about wtih oil.
He is talking about the little hole at the bottom of the timing cover, where the rear timing cover and front timing cover meet.
Great. 
That isn't the weep hole.
When he pulls the front timing cover, he can see where all the leaks come from, most of which have already been suggested.
