Default Oil leak in a 93 Civic hatchback

Stock d16 with 150k miles with timing belt and water pump and all that jazz recently changed.



Here is a pic from up top.

Can anyone make out any problems or where the leak may be coming from?

I've noticed recently a big oil leak on the ground in the garage.

Also the oil was low yesterday.

Looks like there might be a leak from the distributor o-ring.

yup thats what it is. Take your dizzy to a parts store and match up a o-ring. They might keep them in back. But before you do all that make sure you mark your dizzy next to the flange where it bolts.

Or you can just go to honda and pay the 2 bucks it takes to replace it. An improperly sized o-ring will cause leaks and possibly cause damage.
