    Hi all,

    Just going through and doing a thorough service on my recently acquired 2004 Copen, and I've noticed that there is a notable amount of blow-by/oily residue on the intake side of things.

    Specifically, it appears to originate from the outlet on the valve cover closest to the front of the car.

    It may very well be the case where the previous owners/mechanic had never cleaned it, however, I'm wondering if this would be a normal occurrence for the JB-DET engine?
