Leaking valve cover?

I replaced the front valve cover gasket because I thought it was leaking. After I finished, I drove the car for a bit and checked it again. It seems like it's still leaking from the little black plastic piece held on with one bolt beside the dipstick tube. What exactly is this and is there an oring in there I need to replace?

Thanks

That's the PCV valve that is leaking. There is a o-ring on that has gone bad and is leaking. You can replace the PCV valve for like $20-$24. People said to get just the oring but I couldnt get it at the dealer so I bought a PCV valve from amazon since they dont tax in Oklahoma and shipping was free.

Yeah, PCV valve. You can find it here:
Amazon Amazon
, don't mind the fitment, Amazon's fitment is sometimes buggy. If you don't want to wait for the part, you can get one from Napa auto parts as well. It's the exact same thing, just no Honda bagging, but the part number on the actual part is even the same.
