I own a 98 prelude type SH. I love the V-tech. I recently had to replace the clutch though. Any shop wanted way to much $ just to even look at it for me. So a friend of mine helped with the ridiculous process. About a month later I had an oil leak. Bad oil leak. I thought the drain plug fell out somehow. Its all so tight around the oil filter, I can't see where it's coming from. I've checked the oil filter mount. And the engine block mount. Its like the leak is above the oil filter. But there is nothing there to leak. That I can see anyway. Any suggestions will be helpful.

Quite possibly the o-ring that seals the oil cooler against the block has failed.

Is #32 supposed to be kinda flat and have a clean cut split?

No, it should be a normal looking but large diameter rubber o-ring.

Well I think that's the cause of my problem then. That's an easy and cheap fix. The auto parts store was no help getting that o-ring. I'll have to order from the site you sent me to. Thank you.
