    I tried putting oats in my Stage 1. It just turned to porridge.

    UPDATE:

    Source of leak looks to be the exhaust manifold gasket? Odd considering it should be newish (previous owners receipts)

    That's the head gasket leaking, not the exhaust manifold gasket.

    Most probably, but give it a good clean and run it just to make sure that is the source.

    Have you notice your oil pressure switch is missing it's wire, that might come in handy one day.
    If the plug is not sitting there somewhere the wire will be broken behind the head at the end of the engine harness near the FPR.
    I can PM you a generic part number for the plug if needed.

    More likely the welsh plug, have a look at the photo on post #14 Neon Green Fluid + Grease Splatter under auto tranny which then runs down to look like the photo post #15

    I think you may be right Kelvo. How did you go getting yours out? I couldn't shift the one in my scrap head when you had your problem.

    Removed exhaust manifold, then just unscrewed it with a 12mm(?) hex bit in a 1/2” ratchet. Cleaned up threads, smeared the threads on the plug with Stag, and refitted. It’s been leak free ever since, which is nice.
