A lot of people when they see an oil leak will start cranking down on the valve cover bolts which will bend the valve cover, see if that is the problem. If the metal of the valve cover arches in between bolt holes then it has been tightened too much and will have to be straightened, sometimes it is so bad that it will never seal again and will need to be replaced. And remember to just snug those bolts down a little and the new one will seal just fine. Thank You I will have to check that as I am not the one who tightened the bolts down. The person who actually did this for me broke one of the bolts in the process and I had to go to Honda to replace it as neither Autozone or Discount had this item. The gasket they sold me was actually made of rubber so I will have to see if it is pinched as well. :)
