What is this plug on the oil pump
What is this plug on the oil pump?
Mine seems to be leaking oil. It also seems to be unscrewed further than other J series pumps (I googled images).
What's all this then?

I'm thinking its just a port plug.
I was gonna just remove, Hondabond it, and tighten it.
Just making sure there's not like....springs and shims back there that need to be preloaded to some spec.
If anyone knows, LMK.

Yeah, I couldn't find any information on it in manuals or part lists either.
Looks like I'm gonna pretend I know its just a port cap. Next question is...why tf is it loose?
Thanks for the help!

Thanks for the video confirming that its just a plug.
It turns out mine isn't loose. There's no good reason for it to have been loose (which is why it wasnt?)
It seemed like the oil was coming from there, but maybe it wasn't. I just recently replaced the VTEC solenoid gaskets and O rings. So its probs my oil pump itself that's seeping
Its actually for a 4G TL. But that forum isn't as active as this one. Car has low miles so I'm kinda annoyed its got leaks.
Ah well. I'll fix it at some point.
