Hope you get it sorted snoopy. It was only after my engine failed that I realised it must have lost large amounts of oil pretty rapidly. This could turn out to be a very good spot  :cool:

It's slightly oily round the pcv pipe on the top of the engine.
So looks like its suffered PCV and DV failure.

I wonder if the PCV failed and caused the DV to fail as pressure too high?
