Default oil in the tb housing area..

Right around the plate on the tb there was a small puddle of oil looks like it might be coming from the hose thats comes out of the head and into the intake tube that connects to the TB. Anyone knows what causes this? Its a HF crx D15B

crankcase pressure is vented thru that fitting on the valve cover and its being sucked into your motor. excess pressure will cause excess oil to be pulled back into the motor thru the intake, TB and IM. odds are your motors compression is on its way down but if i were u id just put a little breather on the valve cover and cap off the spout on the intake to avoid all that oil going back into the cylinders and making your situation worse
