Red dust means that your distributor bearing is defective, and requires
parts of all of the distributor to be replaced. In the case of my '93
Accord, the housing, cap and rotor were replaced.

three potential causes of the leak. in no particular order:

distributor o-ring.

if the latter, replacement is the only practicable cure.

Re: 1991 Accord - Oil Leak
Thanks for the help. It was the o-ring....it was dry and came off in
pieces. Easy to change...just mark distributor in relation to attachment
points, so as to maintain proper timing. Thanks again, Joe
