I have an oil leak; i think it is comming from the distributor. I was also told it could be the vtec?

i have a d16y8

is there a gasket that would fit inbetween the distributor and the head that i could buy? I was told by mechanic that there is no gasket, but rather the metal that seats it is very thin and deforms to make the seal.

any help would be awesome; want this done asap. thanks
