Default Trying to identify the part name on my 03 accord

Hello,

I have a leak and circled the area in yellow, I believe it is oil but I could be wrong. I can see it dripping off the bolts and when it is running it smokes fiercely so I don't drive it... I don't want it to catch fire. Ill include my car info, if I miss something please let me know.

I appreciate it very much,

Leah

2003 Honda Accord
Coupe EX
6 cyl, standard
Recent work I've had done: Transmission rebuilt, New battery, New tires, brakes, 1 lower control arm bar, oil change.

The oil is probably leaking from the valve cover gasket from above that.

Okay, thank you very much. I didn't know what type of seal/gasket I needed to buy, now I know. :]

I appreciate it,

Leah

Here is a video showing the essential steps. Your model may or may not be slightly different in some connectors, etc.
