got a little problem. my car has anyway. its pissing oil outa the seal on the oil cap and im pretty sure what it is, i cant remember what its called though lol. The little black box thing under the inlet manifold and attached to the back of the lump, whatever thats called, i used to know but ive forgotten, it's blocked. Is there any way of getting it off without removing either the inlet manifold or the whole engine??
Any help will be mch appreciated.

The little black box as you call it, it`s a vapour separator for the breather system, can be easily removed with the a suitable length extension and socket with no removal of the inlet manifold, or falling that just take off the starter motor and use a spanner/socket.

Have fun!!
