    Default b20b4 w/b16 head oil leak question

    Is it normal for there to be a wet spot of oil above the block code looks to be dripping from one corner where the head meets the block just above the block code? its not alot but worries me just wondering if it a valve cover gasket or headgasket or if it just happens with this engine combo or if I can just seal it up around the corner area to stop the leak. And the whole motor only has around 200-300 miles on it.
