Simon , those breathers hiss out oil , they are turned up on the underside , which is where they leak.
Better paint that block white.
Sorry mate , you must be really hacked off with people tellin you what you don't wanna hear.
Maybe fit the gromet with the relief hole in it.

When you got oil over yer headers & block , don't go chasing leaky valve cover gaskets.

Those breathers leak?, so i won't be replacing the inlet gasket after all!
Meantime, haven't read all 22 pages (read quite a few though) so what sort of HP are you expecting from the finished build, Simon?

I think you will be a little suprised once you have it run in, and plant you foot in anger for the first time . At least you will be on the road a lot quicker than me
