Default Oil leak. please help!

from what my mechanic and i can tell, my engine on my '94 vtec sol is in pretty good condition w/ about 71k miles. every morning, i check under the car, i would see some oil spots. i heard that it's not that bad for a car of this age to have a little oil dripping but i want to keep my car as perfect as possible. are there any common places that the oil can be leaking from? thanx

Check the oil pan first. Clean your engine bay and then check for fresh oil. Trace where it's coming from.

Oil presure sender. It's a brass fitting with injected plastic between the fitting and the pressure sending mech. The plastic usually fails about 60k and is the main source of oil leaks on most hondas. Check and replace $15
