I have a obd 1 Gsr swap in my EK and I have noticed it is leaking oil. It looked like the oilpan was leaking, but I have changed it already and its still leaking. I have check just abput every gasket on the top end, but I just can't seemed to find it. I notice from under the car that it is leaking down near where the tranny bolts to the block. Maybe rear main seal leaking?? I hope not!!

That definitely sounds like the main seal. A guy I know is getting ready to do one in his Prelude.

I tend to not say "rear" due to the simple fact of, the motors are sideways lol

i dnt think its the rear main oil seal from what you are saying...is it in front of the block(the second leak you are talking about)

if so its more than likely the cam plug/seal

When I read that, I for some reason thought about the tranny bolting up to the block at the very bottom. I dont know about GSR motors either. It didnt dawn on me that they stop half way down the block/tranny, and then its just a dust cover. My bad. I have a cam plug leaking on my CRX but its not that bad lol
