Hard to find oil leak
#11
Found it!
Oil leak came from the VTEC cover gasket located on the front of the valve cover and hidden behind the power steering pump and tensioner. It is just up and to the left of the items in my pictures. Good info from a locally owned Honda repair shop pointed me in the right direction. Had to remove the pump and tensioner to access it but easy from there. Hope this helps someone else with a similar problem.

Thankyou very much Sir! recently i spent weeks messing around with the oil pressure switch at rear of block trying to stop a leak, cross threading and doing all sorts of other damage only to find it was the solenoid above this switch dripping onto it!!

Yes, this was a tough one for me mostly because I focused on the back side of the engine and it ended up being the “easier to get to” gasket on the front. Good luck with the repair.
