Isn't your distributor on that side of the head. Usually the oil you see in that area is from the distributor o-ring leaking, or the cap for the other cam. I'm assuming the B18C4 is a DOHC so one would have the dizzy while the other would have a seal cap.

The B18C4 is also a VTEC engine, and VTEC solenoid oil leaks are as common as distributor oil leaks.
