hi all was thinking of a drive up the creb this weekend noticed i have developed a bit of a leak from the sump running extended breathers
in all the usual places is it possible to draw water through a leaking sump gasket due to pressure change ? any input appreciated cheers

on the engine, no, generally theres enough blowby to pressureise the sump and head against water ingress...

everything else however is up for grabs, wherever oil can get out water can get it.
