Currently, I am seeing an oil leak occurring behind my alternator. Last night, I also noticed a layer of oil all over my oil filter and oil pan exterior. I thought this could be from the valve cover gasket, but the leak is happening below that. My dipstick is showing good levels just below the top hole and I am not seeing any dripping on the ground. Could this be the VTEC solenoid gasket? I just cannot find it's exact location on my 2.4L motor.
Lately, in this cold weather, I've been hearing that VTC actuator rattling pretty loud, but for a split second. Not sure if that could have an affect?
I've attached some pics for reference. I really appreciate any advice on this.

Thanks!
I know this is an old thread but I have this same issue on my 2010 v6 accord and was curious if you found out what the issue was.
