Oil Leaks

Guys- need your opinions with oil leaks on my fleet of Toyotas! I just sealed the valve covers on my 97 4-Runner- both sides were pissing oil. Turned out to be a fairly easy job! Cleaning the motor from top to bottom, I have noticed oil leaks from my oil cooler, oil pan, rear main seal, and various other points on the block. The truck only has 190,000 miles. Still runs very strong! I also have a 2000 Prerunner, and a 95 Camry- both have similar oil leaks in the same basic places. Is this normal for Toyotas? My Camry has only 88,000 original miles and the valve covers are also pissing oil. Installed new valve cover gaskets in my Prerunner as well. Local Advanced stocks all the seals so this to me indicates it is a common problem. I also have two Honda Pilots, both with just over 100K miles and both of them have zero oil leaks. I also have a 1990 Mustang with over 300K miles (5.0) with very few leaks- mainly the rear main seal...Why so many leaks with my Toyota's? Thanks!
