IN one month I loose 10 quarts of oil and always have to top it off, I do not burn oil, no blue smoke ever, no oil in spark plugs, my rear main seal is good along with the valve cover, I clean under my motor and the only spot I found leaking oil is along side my oil pan, so before I go spending money what do you guys think it is? Oil pan gasket or other problem?

Put some cardboard under your oil pan and see how much is leaking. 10 quarts would be hard not to notice leaking in your driveway.

I'm preparing to overhaul my f23 engine, also for oil consumption reasons (though not quite 10qt/month), and a machine shop guy said that it's a common issue with Honda's piston rings in these cars. You might get a bit of smoke on a cold start but then they heat up and seal better.
