Default 92 prelude oil everywhere

I have a 92 prelude si and I'm leading from my transmission and it sprays I've checked my axle shaft seal it's not that. But I litrly have oil allover my passenger side of my engine bay Hood air intake throttle body air intake manifold. Any ideas what it could be. It's my daily driver and I haul my 2 kids and wife in it.

Last time I heard of this someone had a broken cam cap. Pull the valve cover and check the cam caps for being broken or a broken bolt.

Rear main seal will only leak down.

Is it oil or tranny fluid? Tranny fluid should be red-ish.

Auto or manual tranny?

Could be the drain bolt or washer.

Sometimes if the axle seal is leaking it will sling oil up and into the engine bay. I would check if it lines up with the axle and if so replace the axle seal with a Honda oem seal and refill with honda mtf.
