Check your valve cover gasket and cam seals.

B series, D series, H, F, K, C, whatever else is out there depends where this leak might be coming from.

there is a seal thats inside the dist. take off your cap and see if theres oil in it, if so youll have to tear down the dist. and replace that ring.

I just rebuilt mine for the same thing . I found the oil seal on line for around $10 the dealer did not have parts for the distibutor. The repair is really easy I have a small write up on it that I did for a friend if you would like it

Seeing how he's in the Civic forum, I would be willing to bet it wasn't a C series motor!
