Oil leak - very fast
I have Honda Civic EX 2000 2D, it is leaking oil from top of motor (see pictures). When I start it, I can see the oil dripping on ground. I had oil warning the other day and got it topped up but it is again losing oil very fast.

Can I fix it myself, please let me know how to take care of this.

Thanks

Leak fixed. The O-ring was cracked. No leaks so far after replacing the O-ring.
