    Oil leaks are a pain. Unless you know where the leak is coming from you need to start from the top and work to the bottom.

    Could be cam seal, rear main, crank seal, oil pan gasket. Check the cam seal, I see those go bad quite often. See if there is oil in your bell housing, that is your rear main.

    Im not sure if you meant the oil pan gasket is new and thats why it shouldnt leak, but its very very easy to pinch a brand new one on a honda and spring a small leak.

    I Seen people install the gasket an it comes to my shop an its still is the gasket ...There are two studs on the back an front of the bottom of the engine an when installing the pan its the 2 nuts on each side, that stud if you dont clean it an remove the washers off an the silcone when putting the pan an new gasket on its doubling the washers on the front an back an causing it to leak....Look at a new oil pan gasket you can see silver washers inside the holes ...GL
