Icon6 1994 Accord EX VTEC Solenoid Gasket Replacement Question due to Oil Leak

Techs,

Car has 198K mi is leaking oil from the triangular flange area of VTEC solenoid was wondering should I replace only the GASKET present inside or the one which is attached to cylinder head as well because prominently I can see oil leaking and dripping on ground close to that Triangular region.

Also it drips when I park and stop the car I do not see much while the car is start and running.

Any thoughts???

Determine where the leaks are first. Clean the area with brake clean or something, then drive around for a few minutes. See where the leak is coming from. Replace what's leaking.
