Oil Leak

I own a d16z6, 94 Civic (EJ1).
I recently fixed a distributor o-ring and it's stopped leaking but now there's a new oil leak. It is leaking a lot and is puddling up behind the block. It looks like it's by the head gasket dripping down (could be coming from where circled in 3rd picture) but there's no loss of power. The car runs fine, no leak from VTEC solenoid, so no blown head gasket. Any ideas or questions? Thanks .

second picture is upside down.

Looks like a VTEC leak, but you don't have good pics of it.
I do notice what looks like RTV sealer in the VTEC solenoid?

Suggest you clean everything spotless and start fresh so you can determine where oil leak originates.
