Default Strange distributor oil leak ?

I bought a 4x4 cossie a short while ago with an apparent small oil leak.
Turns out it is the distributor leaking from the base and the phase plug.

The last owner fitted a new one and I have just changed it aswell with one from Burton @ 150 quid but its still the same.

Basically the leak only happens when its either under braking or cornering,I dried it all up and ran it stationary for 20 mins reving it at various revs and it is dry,but do 5 miles on the road and it willl be soaking again?

No other leaks anywhere,breather is fine ect...it has a big wing sump fitted though??
