Smell of oil coming through the vents when driving had it checked out and said the gaskets on the engine have odd leaks, but it does not use much oil other than that. can you help me please?

oil may be leaking onto the exhaust, and oil smoke will enter the cabin on out side air, locate and repair all external oil leaks and this should fix your problem, get the engine washed down and this will help locate fresh oil leaks after a short drive.
