make sure it aint the cam seals they leak and form a puddle on the h22 block deck towards the back seeming like a head gasket but realy a cam seal

is your cam gear upper cover still being used? if not check under the seal to see if you have any signs of oil dripping down ...i just did 2 h22s with the same problem they put the hoonda bond on the seals with out thoroughly cleaning them ..usually once the oil is warmed up you will see it leaking
