Front cover should be sealed from first start, it won't seal itself if leaking now. The seal only goes one way, I remember having to use a liberal coating of black RTV on each side of the rubber gasket. The big problem is that the seal is easily "pinched" when reinstalling/tightening that front cover.... which will cause a massive leak like you described. Front cover leaks tend to get blown by the fan across the front of the engine so oil is probably everywhere now, lol.
