Its possible the housing has a small crack due to overtightening the taper thread or it could be the cover plate leaking, nurse julie does O ring kits for the pump

Using a screwdriver usually overtightenes the camchain leading to excessive wear and possible breakage, ifthis is the only way you can doo it then something is broken/siezed and needs fixing

The Story
Many years ago Honda dealers had to buy parts from one of several "big" dealers, some of these were Fowlers, Tippets, Skellerns, Bill Smith, Bill Head plus more. If you ordered parts by number any dealer got 20% discount, Honda dealers more. Now any dealer orders direct from Honda and get whatever discount Honda give 73
