Thanks for the update Jim.

WRT the oil, yes this engine does leak a bit around the rear. Not too surprised that oil is getting thrown about by the fan and finding it's way into the generator.

The engine is FI, using the stock type-3 manifolds and oil-bath air-cleaner. The engine is a mild 1776, limited by the stock intake. Exhaust is the ISP over-the-top system. Works well.

The hose from the breather to the air-cleaner is present, but is always wet with oil. And there is always a bit of oil around stock breather. The breather only has one cap, not two.

Perhaps you can offer suggestions on making the breather work better?
