starting and leaking problems

My tw200 has a oil leak that sprays up from the top of the engine and hits the exaust pipe, which I figure simply needs a new gasket. The other issue is the bike has gotten continuously hard to start, first it just took a few kicks, then a jump start, and now to the point a few jumpstarts if you are lucky. Once the bike is running it works fine, or if the engine is hot it also starts fairly easily. I thought it was the spark at first now Im leaning towards carb issues... does anyone know what this may be and or what I can do about it???
