    1985 Honda 250sx strange oil leak

    First, thanks for allowing me to be part of this community!

    So I have a question that I think someone here will have the answer to.

    I have a 1985 250sx that I am currently restoring. My issue is, that I have an oil leak coming from the left side of the head. It is coming from a large slotted bolt(like a flathead screw). I think this bolt may be the rocker arm shaft. Would someone verify this is correct? Also, what would cause this to leak(is there a seal or o-ring in the inside)? Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Yes there’s an O-ring there . Rocker arm pins .
    For a temporary fix clean the area up really really well and use a little Honda bond on the face , that will seal it up for a little while.
    It’s a fairly extensive repair to do it right so when you’re ready, get a manual .

    Thanks! That helps me a lot. I will check into getting a manual. I would like to fix it correctly. I thought it would be an in-depth repair. I will wait until I have everything else squared away and save this repair to last. I will check out the Honda bond. I have never heard of that. Thanks for all the help.
