Unforunately we can not find oil leaks over the internet, their are numerous possibilities as to what it could be. Some quick checks you can do yourself would be to see if the drain plug bolt is tight and the gasket is not leaking, also ensure the oil filter is good and tight.

You can actually take it any Honda shop. McDaniels is the only Acura dealer around the Columbia area, but i worked for Honda Cars of Columbia and the parts are cross-referenced and sometimes cheaper!
