If you are willing to do the timing belt why aren't you willing to take the valve cover off?

Because I don't want to buy two sets of gaskets if I don't have to.

That's exactly what I was thinking, but like you said
>mystery plug
and I don't want to fuck anything up. This is my wife's car, and even though it's older, it's actually quite nice. We plan on keeping it for the next several years, if not longer.

That plug takes 2 seconds to pop out with a flat head screwdriver. Your local Honda dealer will have one in stock for around $10-12 bucks. Pop new plug in and clean off old oil with brake cleaner. No more oil leak and maybe a blow job from the wife for fixing her car. Your welcome!

majority of people will call that a cam seal. non-vtec replacement is easy. You can try and get away by not replacing the valve cover gasket/spark plug grommets/upper valve cover grommets.

Even if they leak in a week/month/year, shits right ontop and comes off fairly easy.

cam seal. pop it out, get a new seal, pop it back in.

I've done these before
Easy as pie
Flat screwdriver
Pop it out
Get matching part from dealer - only a few bucks
New one pops in - has 4 little feet that act as spring clips

OP here. Thanks fellas. I've ordered the replacement part. I also saw that there's a billet aftermarket part available that is far more durable. When I do the timing belt this spring, I'll change up to one of those.
