Orochimaru and Kakashi never fought. They only exchanged words. They talked about Orochimaru's village, his pawns, and then Sasuke. Then after hearing what Sasuke was, Kakashi gathered his Lightning Blade.

Kakashi: "Even though you are one of those three ninjas, right now i can at least compete with you..."

Orochimaru just laughs and say his seal was useless. Then he explicitly says...

Orochimaru: "You were going to compete with me? Why don't you try?" Turning his back and walking away carelessly.

Orochimaru: "If you can that is..."

Kakashi's eyes widen in fear and freezes in his place.

Kakashi: "Compete with him? Am I an idiot?"'

Kakashi literally said he'd be an idiot if he thought he could compete with him. Meanwhile against Itachi, he said he can compete using his Sharingan. Completely different.

Him sweating is your proof he was more scared? I think freezing in place in fear, eyes wide, and calling himself an idiot if he thinks he can fight > sweat. He still went heads with Itachi, he didn't even make a step towards Orochimaru.
