if I had to guess the balance shaft seal poped out it's very common for that to happen and honda knows this also thats why they sell a balance shaft seal retainer to keep it from happening again. since oil is pouring out your going to need to replace the timong belt and the balance shaft belt and while your in there the crankshaft , camshaft seal and the oil pump o-ring and check the condition of the tensioners.. if the waterpump has not been replace it's a good time also. if you can DIY then it's not to expensive but the crank pully bolt is a pain to break loose if not have a indpendent shop do the job otherwise park it as if you run out oil it's by-by motor or if enough oil gets on the timing belt it will snap and bend the valves...
