Got the hoses all out this morning, they are soaked with oil so I suspect the seal has been leaking for a while, so I bet the engine has been drinking engine oil for a while. Since she starts (started) on first kick I'm not worried about plugs or injectors, but everything else will need washed out along with an oil and filter change.
Got the three manifold bolts off with a bit of work after a soaking, but as soon as I put the ring on the exhaust bolt I knew it was fekked. That crunch as the ring refuses to bed down, then the massive play on the spanner. Cleaned it up but nut just rounded instantly. Balls.
Nut-splitter ordered up should be here tomorrow will just destroy the bastards off.
