when my distributor seal was leaking it made it all the way to the #4 exhaust port over time. check all of your seals on that side of the motor(dist., cam seal, vtec sol.)

yes, it makes it look like a head gasket as well but it might be the 30 cent distributer seal from above mentioned, or a crappy valve cover gasket, buy some hondabond!!!
