Thats the crank case breather on a 6nz and newer Cat and yea that’s pretty normal. How long where you parker there and was the engine idling?

thats your blowby tube. sit in one spot long enough, you will have that. When your motor is wore out to the point you need a future overhaul, you will have a steady drip

That's normal, I dont recall ever seeing a cat that didn't have a little blow by or a drip from the tube after sitting idling or not. My truck will mark its territory worse than that after idling for 10 minutes
The Biggest Dawg, Wheeljack and Chubby Fly Thank this. -

Funny thing is Mississippi inspected me today I shut the truck off immediately. He noted an air leak from the balance port on the brake valve...well no ####ing #### ossifur that's what that valve is designed to do since you wouldn't let me release my brakes. Told him it was an o ring and I'd fix it at the loves...he never did say anything about the oil pan, or frame being covered in oil.
My old b just likes to let people know where shes been. Come to think of it I'm not sure I've ever seen a b model that didn't leak a little...or a lot of oil if it wasnt washed weekly. My 3406E wasn't bad but this b model does like to leak about a gallon every 10k or so.Chubby Fly Thanks this. -
I just got this truck and it has 75k on a gold rebuild. Does anyone know where I can find the maintenance schedule for this engine? 04 or 05 acert
