DOES MY 740 have a flame trap? ALL 1989

When I cleaned out the flame trap on my 240 the oil seepage stopped. I recently bought a 89 740 with a B234 engine (16 valve) that is leaking oil. So I thought maybe the same situation could apply. I don't yet have a manual for the new beast so I thought I would try here for the answer. If it has one where is it?

Thanks

Steve

From what I hear and know, only turbos do not have a flame trap. Look on the driver side of the engine at the flame trap area and follow it. It will look like other flame traps, most likely.
