Default d16y7/y8 engine leaking

97 civic ex (y8 mini me)

i drove the car home and then down the street the next day after both rides i noticed fresh oil each time i used the card by the d16y7 part of the engine block.
anyone know what could be causing this and should i worry?

Clean it and see where it scoming from after a 5min drive or so. It can be a VTEC solenoid leak like most people have or cam seal.

your valve cover is sealed tight right? its easy for it to leak down that left corner if the seal isnt good. i'd bet on the cam seal tho.
