Icon5 00 Accord Oil & PS Leak Help...

I've got 2 Leaks I think. 1 Oil & 1 PS Fluid cause the PS Reservoir Bubbles while running.
I've changed the Valve Cover Gaskets when not too long ago. Does it look like it's still leaking from there? If so, could I use some Sealant on the outside? Just replaced the AC Fan and now Coolant is low too. Radiator & Reservoir.

in the bottom pic, where the line attaches has two bolts, theres an oring in there

also in the rubber line going to the pump from the reservoir is another oring

replace both orings, and you can get a ps rebuild kit and do the ps pump while you're at it, lots of how-to vids on youtube

for the top pic it looks like it's a timing belt area seal leaking onto the mount

If the leak is at the TC area, can the oil run across
to this side in the pic?
between the heads to that side in the pic?

Anyone?.. also can this be a coolant leak from the thermostat housing? The fluid looks like oil though.

did you think when you originally posted this that people might need to know if this was a 4 cylinder or a 6 cylinder

while it's clear it's 6 cylinder now for some reason it didn't click originally

take better pics or even a video so people can see the area more clearer

Sorry about that. 2000 accord LX 3.0l v6 auto 189k

Would burning coolant turn brown color? I've cleaned this spot off before but can't quite pinpoint if it's coming from the thermostat housing or elsewhere . The VC's are good.
