I just want to cover every minor possibility, before I start diagnosing for big problems causers.
Thanks, jordan

It's possible. Honda strongly reccommends changing that drain plug gasket when changing the oil. Funny, it was even in my automotive (Engine Overhaul) text book this semester as a side note. Most of the stuff in the book was about domestics. Honda must really make sure people know about that!
