    look at the oil filter base too.

    look beyond the base at the oil filter adapter base which bolts to the block, those are notorious for dripping right down on the exhaust.

    No, the oil filter screws onto the oil filter base attached to the engine via 3 10mm bolts, there is a gasket between the engine and this filter base unit nortorious for leaking oil onto the exhaust. The filter gasket
    usually runs about $5 at honda and is simple to change.
