That's the CYL sensor.

If it is the source of a leak, it may be due to an O-ring that is inside. I believe the entire CYL sensor unit is a discontinued part, but I bet Honda would still carry the O-ring as these are likely to wear out with age.

Never done it, but it's probably not hard to repair.
