I can't imagine that being an issue and creating the oil leak.
I have also seen products where you put an additive in the oil and it resolves main seal leaks. Blue Devil Rear Main Sealer. Bad idea? How does something like that work for the rear seal and not the front (since it isn't advertised for the front seal)? |
The PCV and breather are not interchangeable. One side is intake, the other exhaust. So now you've got your intake side pulling air in backwards through the PCV (which is probably check-valved...)
