oil mist

Hi to all,
in first I apologize for my english...

I would like to know if anybody found on his engine a kind of oil deposit around the area of oil screw top? It's seems like coming out from the gasket of engine because is dirty also around the first spark plug but is probably a leakage (mist) that coming out is moving following air flow direction.
Any suggestion?
Thanks
Fede

Re: oil mist

The upper valve cover gasket tends to leak on these engines. It's a simple fix. The upper valve cover needs removed and the old silicone sealant scraped off and new apllied.
