Oil Leak on Exhaust Manifold

Recently my 3.4L 4Runner has sprung a leak more than before and is leaking onto the exhaust manifold. Enough accumulates that I can smell the oil burning, when I open the hood it smokes when I cold start the engine. I can continue to smell small amounts when I’m driving or come to a stop.

It sounds like the valve cover gasket, but I’m wondering if as long as I check and maintain the oil level, is it ok to run like this? I’m moving to a new apartment in 2 weeks so I won’t have time to get parts and fix it. Luckily I only drive it on the weekend

No oil is visible on the floor, only on the block and manifold

It will be fine.

I will wash it ASAP to check for any cracks in the valve cover and to monitor the leak more closely as well
