Oil blowout engine

16-09-2019, 02:53 PM

Hi guys,

Some oil has blown out of this area. Seems the metal has become detached from the unit.

Anyone know what might have caused this? Aside from the obvious loose nut

Engine is the 170bhp version

Not overly familiar with the 170, but is it just blow by soot from the VG actuator, often seen on the 160/163?
