Default Oil Leaking Inside distributor?

I got a problem Ive never really heard of happening before, atleat to anyone i know.

I noticed oil on the bottom of the distributor, a drop or two t be exact, I pulled off the cap, and there was some oil in the bottom inside.

Is the seal for the actual distributor(not the o-ring) going bad? Is there any way to replace it without buying a new distributor?

Yeah, there is an oil seal inside when you take the valve cover off that you just need to replace.

Thats already been replaced recently, Im asking does the shaft that spins in the distributor have a seal internally?

Oil is INSIDE the distributor

i love how everyone can read......

anyways....i personally wouldnt worry about a small drop or two. I just checked the Acura site and it does not sell any other seals for the distributor other than the one you have already replaced. If it gets worse it will be time for a new distributor IMO
