I was getting some blow by my oil filler cap. When looking at the two springs on the cap the hold it on, when i push on them, one side was flush against the plate, one side had a slight clearance, and it seemed to be leaking from this side. I cut a ring out of general purpose gasket material, and placed it behind the rubber seal. The extra 1/32 of thickness seems to be enough to keep a good seal.
