    Default b18c1 leaking oil

    Hello all,

    I recently just swapped a b18c1 motor and tranny into my 95 ex coupe. As you can see there is oil dripping out. Now correct me if i'm wrong but before assuming that it's warped I should change out the....

    -Vtec Solenoid Gasket

    And what else?

    Also it's easy to see that the motors been taken apart before. The upper half looks sand blasted and much cleaner than the lower tranny area. Tranny is a 96 and motor is a 94. Also, as seen in the third pic the gasket is not OEM. Typically it would have some engravings visible on it would it not?

    UPDATE:

    Many thanks to barefoot motorsports for helping me narrow it down a bunch. I am ordering a new distributor, the one that was sold to me rattles i'm sure it's on its way out, with a new o-ring and vtec solenoid gaskets (upper and lower). HOPEFULLY this will remedy the issue.
