it all looks dry oil wise more like carbon than oil tbh so its not leaking it just maybe a bit of blow out when under load?

thanks yea ive just looked through the service manual and it seems a big job to do without the engine out. i guess ill just keep an eye on it and see if im losing much oil from it. just done the oil change and 3.5 litres came out plus a little spillage and the stuff in the oil filter i guess im not losing much in a year so hope im ok maybe a reason to have engine out for this and new long manifold :p
