Default noticed a weird leak !

today, i chose to clean my engine, cleaning it i noticed a HUGE ammount of oil just sitting on the tranny i cleaned it all just thinking its just ageing or some past issue thats been solved, so i cleaned it, ok this is a B18a1 motor, drove it for a while when i get home i notice this right here, and honestly its ALOT OF OIL LEAKED for my short drive i had. its been there obviously

after engine cleaned look closely its all clean next pic will show more

THE LEAK !



so what is this, is it motor oil ??? how is it caused ? how do i stop it.

Oh again this is a 1993 Acura Integra LS B18A1 Manual Transmission.

That is the cam seal/cap on the exhaust side. Common problem, cheap/easy fix.

I still need to replace mine, i'm just lazy =P
