The stains do look like the weeping is coming from the bolts. The other half of the case where the gasket would be looks normal and I would expect it to be stained if the gasket seam was in play. Maybe its a design thing. Also try to find an independent Honda mechanic and have a chat. They may be able to share detail in a more frank way about your issue vs the dealer. How many miles did you drive it between when they cleaned up the case and rechecked it?
