hey guys heres my experience with my 93 and its oil leak btwn the head and the distibutor (if it helps any). I took my car in to the local Honda dealership to get the timing belt and water pump done at 100k miles and they said that I had the aforementioned oil leak. I told them to take a look at at and they pulled it apart while they were doing the timing belt package. they said that there was an o-ring seal that had gone bad. I told them that where I come from, money doesnt grow on trees (they wanted an additional $180 to including labor to replace the distributor o-ring) where I come from. Since they were making over $500 from me for the timing package they only charged me for parts and no labor since they just couldnt see not replacing it now that they had it all pulled apart. Parts came to something like $16... and done by Honda professionals, with a warranty. Some dealerships like to nickel-and-dime people to death. It is nice to see one that doesn't.
