It looks like the axle nut has been beaten on with a screw driver tip or chisel, and almost like it's been cut.
Honda parts should have one or maybe someone here has a spare can offer up.
 
thank i know it didn't look right to me. if they brake the seal on the tire you think that will stop the leak

think if we break the tire off the rim and clean it it will stop the leak? becouse the tred dont seem that bad.

If the bead is leaking then the first thing I'd do is remove the tire, clean the wheel bead and tire bead surface.
Look for any corrosion in the aluminum, it should be smooth.
Change the valve stem while your at it.
