Thank god FOR S2KI !! My Hole has Been leaking for months now, and has got to the point where I am Losing significant amount of oil from it. I'll post pictures soon to show you how bad it can got. I thought the Gasket maker I put on it did the trick as a band aid, but no. And was looking to avoid pulling out the Whole Bolt. Well until I read this GREAT Write Up, Going to do it today. Not just oil pouring out, but it was also sucking in air and making my oil nice and throfty, lol, really. BTW, When you call Honda for the Part, they are going to tell you they don't have it. But after google'ing the number, I found out that 91301-PCX-003, is used for multiple O-rings on teh car. And on Multiple cars, So if you give them just the 91301 Number it can be cross referenced to other vehicles, civic, accord etc. OR Just get the 16mm OR 5/8 x 1/16, O-Ring from most Hardware stores, O-ring Kits or Auto parts Stores. THANK YOU VERY MUCH MP2k !!!! Saved me a lot time and risk F'ing up More Stuff!!

This is very simple.
Loosen the camwheel bolt enough to expose the o-ring. DO NOT remove bolt all the way.
Change oring, touch of oil on the oring, then tighten camwheel bolt properly.

Thanks to all involved in this thread and the other one for the great info and pictures/DIY. I haven't noticed this happening on mine but will double check tonight.

Seems simple, but @Slows2k 's answer of "the cams and timing chain tensioner need to be removed" is a scary proposition relative to that.

Billman250, would you consider there to be any significant risk to a mere mortal DIYing this, assuming care is taken to back this out just barely enough to get at the old o-ring, and to carefully re-torque with a torque wrench? It's clear that backing it out further would be Rather Bad.
Pictures @ https://www.s2ki.com/forums/s2000-un.../#post19873009 -- frankly in those pictures, it looks like it was loosened/opened slightly too much for my comfort.
Here's a DIY video from our very own Soviet:
Good luck!

This seems like a very easy diy that anyone that is careful, and knows how to follow directions, and is aware of what not to do (loosen bolt too far), could accomplish.
Be sure to have a decent pick tool to remove old ring, so you aren't tempted to remove it too far because your lame screwdriver can't get the o-ring off.
