I can't find where this leak is coming from It might be hard to see the oil but it's around the block stamp in the photo

 

Probably distributor or VTEC solenoid (if engine has one).

 

Most likely the distributor.

FYI you should include the related necessary info as indicated by the forum rules.

 

I have this same leak I have replaced distributor and Vtec solenoid gaskets and valve cover gasket and I still get this leak... I have ran out of options of what it could be or what I did wrong...

 

I had what seems to be the exact same leak. It was coming from both, the valve cover gasket and the vtec solenoid. replacing both gaskets fixed it. You will need a mirror and to pay close attention to find it. look at the valve colver gasket right behind the distributor, at the corner where it goes above the cam seal. Also look at the vtec solenoid from behind.

Remember that there is 2 seals in the vtec assy. mine was one for the actual solenoid.

 

Ive changed both seals

 

have you tried to source the issue with the engine running? Is it a fairly steady leak like half quart loss or so in 500 miles?

take a look at that valve cover gasket

 

Yeah around there I cant seem to pinpoint the leak Could it be old oil that wasaccumulated

 

Distributor, exhaust cam cap seal (big black circle looking thingie), vtec solenoid gasket, headgasket.

You'll need to clean it up and locate the leak at all of the above locations.

 

I will continue to look

 

Wouldn't be the exhaust cam cap seal as its a D series engine pictured. However there are three different posters in this thread. The OP hasn't returned.

For the others, clean up the oil first. You'll never be able to find the source if your engine looks like the one currently pictured.
