Default 1993 Camry V6 BAD Oil Leak

Ok, so my friend was driving home last night, the engine lugged a little once, she kept going and it stated doing the same, then cut off and won't start. Oil's leaking pretty badly around the oil filter from the look of it (front, passenger side) but spraying up a little. Again, it's not cranking so I can't really tell where it's coming from, just that it's leaking down A LOT and spraying up some. I've got a decent mechanical background so I'm not afraid of looking into it if you guys any suggestions. Also, and engine diagram would be great, I can't find one anywhere online. Thanks for any help you can give.

What model of V6 engine?

There is nothing in the filter area expect the filter. Have you check the filter to determine it is loose, the gasket has blown, etc?

The oil pump and oil pressure switch are on the passengers side of the engine behind the crank pulley. The inner oil pump gear slides onto the crank snub.
