Default oil leak

Okay guys, I have an oil leak. I have a 95 accord ex. The leak is on the passenger side. I've already replaced the valve cover gasket and the O ring on the distributer. And it hasn't stopped yet. I'm loosing about 2-3 quarts a week. It seems to be spraying up onto the Hood. Any ideas on what it could be guys?

I think you need to clean it up real good then watch for exactly where it's coming from.

Maybe the VTEC spool-valve?

d*m, that's emergency grade leak.

photo it, or take it to dealer. If hitting hood then leak's up high.
are sure you didn't just change oil filter and forget to fully tighten it?
