Where to buy OEM Camshaft Seal and Plug?
Can anyone enlighten me as to which website to find the OEM camshaft seal and plug that is on the passengers side? I am having no luck at all and I am not interested in aftermarket parts for this job.
Thank you.

But to do a proper, permanent, Honda-specified repair job, you need the TSB that Honda has issued that shows you how to do it. PM me and I'll send you a copy.
At any Acura dealer. There's only one part: the plug. I think the plug's about $10. It's part #7 in the diagram on this page:

The cap has a couple of rings molded into it. Those were originally supposed to do the sealing, but they've proved inadequate. Honda has a fix that's outlined in a TSB. It involves the careful and precise use of something like Permatex Ultra Black or Ultra Grey.
If you want a copy of the TSB, PM me with your email address.
If you need to replace it, you should look into the skunk2 cam seal. It has a couple more rubber rings, I believe, in order to help minimize the chances of it leaking. It's much better than the OEM one, and for 20 bucks, you can't go wrong.
I would just replace a lot of aftermarket companies make aftermarket cam seals with double and even triple ring seals. And they are not that expensive and less likely to leak. I went with the skunk 2 one never had a problem so far.
