Scott,

I recently fixed mine with a new O ring, as Adam says. Snug tight fit, has not moved since.

However, the weeping seals at the camshaft cover probably indicate that crankcase pressure is higher than normal. Changing the PCV valve, which is awkward to get to, has fixed this for some people. Mine weeps as well, I have yet to do this job.

If you run a search, you will find posts detailing the job. I think a crows foot spanner is useful, and some people have bent the head of a ring spanner for ease of access.

Joe
