one of my Bs leaks oil really bad both sides from the top of the motor. I assume its the valve cover, but it looks like it could be coming from the head, can it leak oil from the head ?

and the exhaust is very load, can the muffler be bad ?

valve cover is common if it is a good leak. head will seep a little at the head gasket, normally not a lot. reach up under the hood with 9/16 wrench and tighten valve cover nuts and see if that helps.. wipe it off and watch. Old mufflers sound loud, also look for holes in the side of manifold pointing straight out the side.
