I've replaced the cylinder head plug (part number 12513-P72-003), valve cover gasket (part number 12341-PLC-000), and rear main seal (part number 91214-PLE-003). I can't think of any other seal that would cause an oil leak this high on the engine. Maybe I didn't replace the rear main seal properly? If anyone has any input to what they think it is I'd really appreciate it, thanks.
it's in between block and head.
so, start from there and go up. (we have not seen the sides or back of the engine)
if nothing up, then it's where it is accumulating

Re: Where is this oil leak coming from?
OP are you sure the new cam cap seal is sealing correctly? Did you add any RTV to that seal?
If the PCV valve is clogged that could possibly cause a leak in that area as well.
Use a de-greaser or brake spray and rag and clean that area up as best as possible to help isolate the leak.
