If you're going to tell me to search, stop there. I've searched this whole section and didn't find any leak that was similar to mine.

Ok, so my car has been leaking oil. I first thought it was the o-ring on the distributor but turns out it isn't. I checked my valve cover gasket and that's not it. Here's a pic of where the oil sits on the back of the head (circled in red). Thanks, in any input is appreciated.

cam seal? i dunno.. weird..

 

Thanks, I believe the cam seal would leak down the front of the motor.

 

Try tightenin the nut with the allen head. looks like it was taken out for a ls/vtec and re installed loosely or with no teflon tape

 

Good eye man

Deff looks like the problem.

If that don't do it degrease you whole motor quick and you should be able to track it

 

Its kind of obvious as you can see where the fresh oil is.

 

Yea I just didn't notice it looked loose at first, which it does it shouldbe flush witht the head no?

 

Ok, I knew it looked odd. I'll do it and let you guys know. Thanks

 

It should be flush or nearly flush with the head.

 

I got that nearly flush with the head. It stopped that leak, lol. There is another small one on the corner close to it that I need to tighten also. mouab18c1, by your user name, can I assume you're Hmong. I'm Hmong too.

 

Glad you figured it out. Yeah Im Hmong

 

Hmong?

Enlighten

 

Wikipedia:
The Hmong (pronounced [m̥ɔ̃ŋ]), are an Asian ethnic group from the mountainous regions of China, Vietnam, Laos, and Thailand. Hmong are also one of the sub-groups of the Miao ethnicity (苗族) in southern China. Hmong groups began a gradual southward migration in the 18th century due to political unrest and to find more arable land.

 

Its our nationality. Our people helped the Americans during the Vietnam war, and got screwed over by the US. If you havent heard of it look up Secret War "Hmong" on Youtube.

 

That's right, lol. Thanks guys for the info and help.

 

Wow, That's typical of them.
