oil leak from intake

Recommended Posts

hi my name is edwin....for the past few months i have been having an annoying oil leak which is coming from my intake manifold (e36 328i 1996) innitially i thought it was the oil separator under the intake ...changed that 2 x with no success......then i thought it could be a falty valve cover near the breather hose ...changed that too ...but i still have this leak......my car has done 206442 km till this date...i have no problems with power or idleing...i have run out of options ....please help....

check the rubber oil return hose that goes down to the dipdstick from the pcv they perrish .

also the O-ring around the bottom of the dipstick.

also the oil filter housing gaskets and o-rings behind the little metal caps etc (if it has them)
