Default Please help with 92 Accord oil leak!!!!!!

i've got a 92 accord lx (4 door) and automatic. it has a about 193K miles on it. i changed out the timing belt, water pump, and all the oil seals. now its leaking oil right above the water pump and between the head and block. i know its coming from there, i took the timing belt cover off and wiped down everything. when i give it gas, oil leaks from there. is the head gasket bad? any other suggestions? thank you so much!!!

could be the seals you replaced, where do you see oil coming out of? Is it coming out of the cam seal? Why do you assume it is the head gasket?

i dont see oil coming out of the cam seal. oil is coming out between head and block on drivers side, right about water pump. im just guessing it might be the head gasket. does oil leak with bad head gasket?

Look directly above the oil filter. You will find the oil pressure sending unit mounted there. It is located on the timing belt end of the block on the side facing towards the rear.
It's a quite common problem.
You may need to clean off the block with some Brake Cleaner to get a good look.
