Default holyshit oil leak..........

Okay, guys' i'm new here' and i have a new problem.

I have a b16a2. and its leaking oil.......... the engine barely burns oil.. only if i ride on vtec for a long time .. apart from that its smooth. anyways.. the oil is leaking from somewhere near the center / passsenger side. I'm assuming its just the distributor o-ring.. but i'm not too sure.......

every morning when i check it. the puddle gets bigger.. well not quite a puddle.. i know its dripping... but not when i'm driving....... help me...out guys~

Possibly cam seal.. which is beside the distributor on the passenger side of the head. I know those are common to leak on GSR heads, I'm assuming the same for other VTEC heads. I actually had an oil leak from my VTEC solenoid not long ago and it will leak pretty good. doesn't blow out, but always has a fresh coat of oil until I fixed it.

Open the hood and take a look at where it's coming from. Take a picture and post it. Sounds like you've hardly even looked and you want us to diagnose it for you.

That plug on the end on the exhaust cam side has a tendancy to leak.
