Stop driving the car imedietly! You can cause sever damage to the new tranny if you drive it!
Goto honda (In anther car obviously)
Get a new seal (Bring in the old one)
Remove the axle from the tranny side only
Remove the old seal
Install the new seal
Reinstall the axle
Fill with oil check for leaks
Those seals are only meant to be ussed once aka installed once they can tear pretty easily. The reason i say dont drive the car is because if you lose to much oil your burn up a bearing, gear, syncro, ext. I did it once on my Si and the tranny lasted about 500 miles b4 the fith gear burned up
Also bring in the old seal to honda because i ordered one and it was the wrong one, Hence why i had a leak dident check it to be sure it was the same so. Shouldent take you more then 30min to fix
