Oil leaking?

Hey guys I have a 04 honda civic, that just had the crank shaft seal replace because it was leaking. Well now there is another place that's seems to be leaking. Does anyone know what it could be

Re: Oil leaking?

the highest point with oil is the culprit.
See other side of the engine and the side of the head.
typical ones are:
- VTEC solenoid (If you have)
- Camshaft end plug
- Valve cover (yours maybe good?)

Re: Oil leaking?

you should have - I see in your pictures your block is D17A2. Unless someone swapped a non-VTEC head, that is

Re: Oil leaking?

looks like time to remove the VTEC solenoid, gaskets and don't forget to clean the filter while at it
