Default 2002 Honda Accord Oil leak Help

I got a Honda Accord a few months ago and noticed a few leaks under the hood. I was hoping to get some insight of what exactly is leaking and what I would need to do to repair it.

Looks to me like you have a distributor O-ring leak. The O-ring itself is an easy fix. I would take the distributor cap off and make sure you don't have any oil leaking internally. Honda doesn't offer the internal distributor seal but you can get one from a local auto parts store. They can be tricky to replace without boogering up the new seal but it can be done. The easier but more expensive fix is to replace the whole distributor. But again this is only if you have an internal leak.

I also see a possible valve cover gasket or VTEC solenoid leak. Hard to say which for sure from the pictures but neither are difficult.

Tte last looks like either the P/S pump or the lines leading to/from the pump. Again tough to say from pictures.

Engine compartment looks clean. Those are good cars. I hope it serves you well!
