Hi Jason,

I've got the same problem with my '86 Westy and I've discovered that there
are a few places that leak could be coming from.  I replaced my oil pressure
relief valve and it didn't do a thing for the leak.  I also replaced my oil
cooler ring - I would look there next.  But that didn't do it either.  So
now I'm pretty sure its coming from the oil.. ahh.. whats it called... the
black tall cylinder oil thing that goes to your air intake area - can't
remember the name of it right now, but it also has a seal where it connects
to the engine block and I'm going to replace that next.  It definetly has
oil leaking out from the bottom, not much, but enough to replace it.  So
there's a few suggestions of other places to look as well.  Good luck!

Peace,
Marla
