Oil Leak

I have an oil leak around around the oil pump area of my motor (stock). Im believe its coming from the oil pump housing. Should I replace the Oil pump housing and the seal inside or should i just replace the inside seal. Has anyone had experience with this or do the know for a fact what it is because the motor maybe known for it?

I don't know if there would be a cost-benefit to going ahead and buying a new oil pump; at the same time, you can go ahead an do your timing belt since you're there...but definitely use new seals!

And, be sure to thoroughly clean off the old liquid gasket crap off the surfaces! Use Hondabond or Ultra Flange as the new "gasket" and on the inner threads of the bolt holes.... Time the application carefully since the liquid sets pretty fast!!
