Default B-series bad rear of motor oil leak

Alright so I have a bad leak obviously. When i get under the car she looks to be coming from anywhere between the oil filter and the bottom of the motor because its dripping off the header downpipe. It Also looks like oils seeping out between the oil pan and block, obviously there it needs to be re bonded. But I'm wondering whats dripping from above the downpipe, is there a seal there that easily blows? I'm about to change the oil because maybe it could even be a faulty filter but that seems doubtful.

clean it up with some brake cleaner, run the car and check every 5 minutes to see where is coming from

oil pressure sensor most likely, i know most people probably never had this issue but ive had it several times over various different cars where the sensor breaks and oil comes right out through the sensor itself.

Oil pressure sensor for me as well. I had to re-Hondabond HT it before I had all of the oil leaks fixed.

The PCV chamber (older style PCV on early DC/DB's) still weeps a little, but nothing to cause a drip.
