Well the local Volvo dealer does not stock it, and it takes a week to get it...that won't work for this weekend.

Now for the truth: I cleaned the oil trap about 2 weeks ago, but apparently is wrestling the intake back in, managed to knock one of the hoses back off. I have an awful oil leak from right there now. So I am re-doing the job. Really did not want to admit I screwed up, but I did. The reason I am admitting it is, that I already have an aftermarket gasket on it from that time. The original gasket was not a thin paper gasket like you have, but wasn't as thick as this one either. Regardless, I'm going back with this gasket since the dealer does not have one in stock. If there was something really wrong with the thick composition gasket, I'd wait until they restocked.

Now as to the fuel injectors: What did you do, disconnect the fuel line at the fuel rail? Is that just a common banjo fitting?
