I agree with Boiler - the "oiliness" is probably from the oil they use to coat the inside of the pipe to prevent rust (assuming it is not full stainless).

Seung, if you really worry about it, take it to Francis's house to check it out... Somehow he is more a Honda merchanic than the guy in Honda.. However, I agree with boiler...

Two weeks of driving should eliminate any coating, cutting oil, or other preservative. If you really are seeing oil it is a problem. First, though, try resetting the ECU and see what happens, and check your oil to make sure it is not overfilled. Are you seeing any bluish smoke?

Nothing to worry about........... some here haven't figured out that part of the oil you consume goes out the pipe.
