Inspecting closer, the residue definitely appears to be in higher concentration around the rocker cover and gasket (Items #15 and 16 on page EM-51 in the 2011 FSM) rather than the PVC hoses. If some seepage is to be expected and you don't see an alarming amount, then I will clean it off and monitor it going forward. But if I need to do something, it's probably something that I can do at the same time as the spark plugs.

You just might need to tighten down on the valve covers a little bit.

When you pull upper plenum to change plugs; look at oil residue that collects inside it.

Nice to have found some time to work on the Z lol

Z1 2-piece rotors installed

Bailed on the brake ducts and SPL FUCAs. Likely will bail on the oil cooler, too. Various odds and ends still need to be buttoned up before she's roadworthy. It's been so long, I need to make sure she still runs

Wheels will be here this weekend. Time to drive. Of course, the battery is probably dead

Got to work at 530 and now starting to feel tired. Making up time sucks.
