The valve cover is black and it is a DOHC valve cover...basically it is wider than a SOHC valve cover. Also if you can, check the block stamp near where the trans and engine meet. The engine code should be stamped on there.

The Engine code should say "ZC", the Honda motor company sign should be on the exhaust side of the manifold, the valve cover bolts are also on the outer edges of the valve cover, and the valve cover should be black.
