1995 Honda Accord Oil leak -- please help identify the source!
Hi. I have a 1995 Honda Accord LX (non-VTEC) with 157,000 miles which has a significant oil leak. It loses 1 quart per month or so. I'm having trouble determining exactly what is leaking.
There seems to be a small leak coming from the bottom corner of the transmission(?) under the passenger seat, and another, more significant one, coming from a little closer to the center of the car. I've attached a picture showing the leaks.
The distributor was replaced a little over a year ago, so I doubt it's dripping down from the Dist. O-ring. I just replaced the valve gasket cover and associated o-rings around the spark plugs which solved a problem with wet-fouling of the spark plugs, but alas did not stop this drip as I had hoped. Any help identifying the source would be greatly appreciated!

Many times its the oil pressure sensor(Which is on the back of the block). Though sorta hard to see from a picture. Also, dont use them damn fram oil filters!!
