    Where, exactly? Pictures? Do you see a leak? These engines do have a closed crankcase breather system and are prone to bypassing some oil through the intake piping past the turbo.

    Are you talking about the right valve cover area? The crankcase breather is in this area, but there is alot packed into this engine. Pictures would really help.

    it is MAN engine, they use closed crankcase ventilation system and sometimes crankcase vent lets oil out... really not a big problem
