Hmmm at first glance would look like a head gasket but im starting to think its that bronze plug. Clean that area up make sure you oil level is good and that your not burning coolant and check it daily too see where its coming from. Does your oil look normal and not like milk?Also i would hold off on that turbo kit installation for now until this leak is taken care of.

That area commonly is subject to porus casting and a little seep that collects dirt. Most just clean it off every six months but a few were so bad that Honda replaced the head.

Usually not something to worry about.
