I recently purchased LR Perentie FFR 3.9 D

I had an oil leak from return of vacuum pump to dipstick. Fixed that and oil started coming out of top of dipstick even at idle. I assume I have build up of pressure in sump which is pushing oil up and out of dipstick. Engine is running ok but I do not want to drive it in case I blow seals. What should I check. Is there a system of diagnosis. Is it the crankcase breather blocked - if so how do you clean. Where are pressure relief valves is there a PCV any where? Any help gladly recieved.

Cheers

maybe better to post this question on the remlr.com forum?

- lots of "Perentie" users over there

Crankcase breather in the side cover, check that
