Re: More Oil Leaks - Any Advice
Have you tried the dye/blacklight yet? That should help locate the source (starting with a relatively clean engine).

Thanks for all the replies everyone. Had some tips from the (VS) site as well - one was dead on for the leak higher up on the engine....it looks to be an overtightened clamp on the 90` hose off the Oil Trap - to the block. I did have a cut o'ring on the dipstick tube - that oozing has stopped. Now I'll have to take the Intake off to get at the hose and clamp. Since I'm going to have to replace the intake gasket, does anyone have advise on the (IPD Intake Spacer) kit? Anyways - didn't do the "Dye Test", and to anyone doing the PCV - don't overtighten the clamps!
