96 EX D16Y8 oil leak
Installed new oil pump with new o ring and honda bond torqued to 9 ft lbs. it only drips while the car is running, I drips from the front corner of the oil pan closet to the firewall
I cleaned it off and it seems to be leaking from that Allen key type recessed bolt that sticks out from the timing belt cover
Any thoughts

Sorry to hear that. From the sounds of it you may have torn of folded a lip on the crankshaft oil seal. When you replaced the oil pump did it come with the crank seal already installed? If so, did you lube that seal or the crankshaft with a little oil before installation?
