if you haven't found the leak try putting dye in the oil then you will know exactly where it's coming from as with the UV light it will show up brite yellow!

Mine did the same thing about a year ago and started small and got worse. It turned out to be a gasket from the oil cooler to the engine. Hard as heck to see with all the stuff above it but if you can feel down the oil filter to the motor you may find your leak in there. Good luck

Got my shit fixed, it had a few fried gaskets around the vtec solenoid, thermostat area, and I dont know the rest. So got them replaced and got an intermediate service done and now my car is running like a champ, it ran like a champ before too. I havent hit vtec yet because weather is shitty, but you best believe im about too when I get the chance! They cleaned all the vtec solenoid and crap all up in my engine so know everything is all good. Im sitting at 105000 miles and dont plan on getting rid of her anytime soon! Damn I love this car and it is such a shame that they got rid of the prelude. What is also a shame is the build quality of the newer hondas coming out of the alliston ontario plant, like the SI. I love that car but the only reason why im not getting one is because they are not built in japan. Japanese built hondas FTW!!!!!
