Default 98 Civic Oil Leak. replaced cover gasket, o ring and vtec solenoid what else?

It was definitely leaking from the valve cover and vtec solenoid
Replaced valve cover gasket, both gaskets on the vtec solenoid
and on the distributor o ring shaft.

Still have a leak.

Any other suggestions?
I will post pics this week
