hey guys i have a eg6 and i have noticed that there is some oil appearing from the head gasket aeria. it isnt using any oil though i check it every 40-50 miles .would it benfit from a new head gasket ive never seen it before as i cleaned up th engine last year please help me guys .

 

Have you ruled out other more common sites for oil leaks, such as the valve cover gasket, distributor O-ring, or VTEC solenoid (if you have one)?

 

yeha i have checked them and they seem fine, i replaced the cam cover gasket upon chanign my rocker cover to a spoon style one ,
its definatly head gasket you can see it right in the crevice of the head and block

 

That's usually from a leaky distributor o-ring or valve cover gasket. Did it start leaking shortly after you replaced the valve cover? Chances are the gasket slipped or didn't seal right on installation.

 

no there was no leak i just pulled up one day to show a buddy under my hood and i noticed the oil stain around the head gasket, it isnt the side of the disrubutor its cambelt side but only at the front, i can see clearly as my engine has been sprayed with high temp paint in silver,
