Persistent engine oil leak-300E

My feeling is that I may not be alone on this one. My 91 300E, 3.0, has an oil leak at the point where head,block,bottom timing cover, and camshaft cover meet. I have tried all MB sealants and great care in replacing the camshaft cover, sealants, and gasket positioning a few times and it keeps coming back. Anybody with any tips here (sealant other than MB, cleaning agents for surface adhesion of sealants, etc) or it is a losing cause?
