Default Oil leaking distributor

The dist is leaking oil, is it possible to change the seal on it? I don't know which seal it is. The oil is comming through the dist and leaking out the cap. Has anyone ever had this problem before, if so how did you fix it? If it matters, it's a 93 1.5L Non Vtec.

Thanks in advance.

Wow, leaking out of the cap? Thats a really bad seal... yes the seal is cheap, you can buy it at any parts store. Make sure its for the right distributor though.

The more I look at that pic I don't think that o-ring would help. That o-ring seems like it would keep oil from leaking between the head and the dist., but I'm getting oil in the dist. itself.
