I have this as well on my '03. I've never tried wiping the residue off as it's a really small spot and it looks caked over (read: old and no longer leaking). I've read a few other posts on here about this same issue. I don't think it's anything to be concerned with.

Technically it is a defect, but I wouldn't replace the cylinder head to repair. If you car was still under warranty Honda would epoxy it 1st.
thx for the input guys really appreciate it

I would continue to clean that area and monitor it weekly. Its unlikely to fail catastrophically, but you need to watch it.
Im with Slow, more oil will be lost elsewhere.
Might be worth seeing if the bolts will pull up a bit - but if it was me I would leave it - might make it worse.
