Fit new washers on all the oil plugs every time you remove them -- and properly torque (don't guess) -- to eliminate these as a leak source. And note the previous notes on how any oil spillage or leak will migrate often far from the source. Torque specifications are important as it's possible to over-tighten things and cause gaskets to fail. Honda maintenance manuals almost universally specify "replace" for any seal or gasket removed. Cheap in the long run.
