850 oil leaks/pressure 850

posted by  someone claiming to be markoman on  Tue Jul 19 21:58 CST 2011 [RELATED]

oil is leaking from cam seals, oil filler cap, dipstick seal, etc. I think their is too much pressure building up. I have repeatedly clean oil trap, but I suspect that the oil separator both is full/clogged. anyone know anything about this? I have done a great deal of work on the car (timing belts, front end, electric heating/cooling systems) , but I am not inclined to remove intake manifold, fuel rail etc, as car had over 300K miles and I'm thinking I'll wind up with leaks or some other issue.

would appreciate any help or suggestions - could something else be creating a high pressure level?

thanks
mark
