Re: engine oil additives

the leak around youre cylinder head is due to the rocker cover gasket leaking .

get new gasket, clean off metal mating surfaces with thinners[ gunwash etc] so
they are nice and dry , fit new gasket to rocker cover and use some hylomar
compound on both sides of gasket.

refit rocker cover and tighten up holdown nuts a bit at a time , but dont
overtighten them and make the gasket squeeze out from under the rocker cover .

or the three ringed rubber collar around the filler/breather, which wears to
be a slack fit every now and again.

Aren't they self adhesive on one side?
