I believe I have a coolant at the coolant bleed screw. Any other way of stopping it other than a sealing washer?

Is your leak at part 10/14?
You could try replacing #10, but I don't see it listed as an orderable part thru procaliber.
If still under warranty, you might be better off sending it to the dealer and let them dig around for replacement pieces.

That does look like it. Thanks very much for your help.

It would appear that Honda removed that bleed screw pipe after 2016. The 2017 and up models just have a rubber hose in its place. Babbits diagrams have both showing but you can't select the parts related to the bleed hose. They've moved the bleeder to the thermostat housing.

The bleeder was on the thermostat housing but the leak was from a very loose hose clamp on the housing hose. A number of the coolant hose clamps were not very tight. Thanks.
