Hello, I currently own a 2019 civic si and just hit 15,000 miles. I noticed some oil near the oil checking stick. Below are pictures of the oil:

I have not made any modifications and always change my oil on time with the dealership so I am confused as to why this could be happening. Any ideas on what it could be?

Quite a few of us had to bring in our cars to get our valve cover gasket replaced because it was leaking from the factory. Just schedule an appointment with your local Honda dealer and they'll get it taken care of.

Seconded. It seems like a fairly common failure requiring valve cover gasket replacement.

I feel very fortunate that I haven't had that leak yet. I check every time I open the hood.
