    My oil return pipe is leaking?

    There is oil leaking out of the oil ruturn pipe that goes from the intake manifold to the block. Can I tighten this pipe by or how can I fix this? My car won't idle and I checked the fault codes and came up with 1222. I probably have some vacuum leaks that I need to take care of, but my main concern right now is the oil leak.

    Sounds like you'll probably need two new o-rings for that tube. also make sure the spring is installed on the bottom.

      it sounds like its actually the the crankcase vent rather than a oil return pipe. There should be some seals to replace as Etasport says
