Rear Camshaft Cap 200 1992

Hi everybody,
The rear camshaft cap of my B200F 240 Polar popped out and the engine bay (firewall side) is now flushed with oil :-(
I saw that the main culprit can be a clogged flame trap/barrel, but I changed both barrel and flame trap some 18 months ago.
My car has 570k km. and it's very well kept and carefully serviced.
Can somebody give me a hint about a different possible cause to search for?
And then: is it enough to just replace the lost cap with a brand new one or should I change something else (gaskets etc)
Thanks a lot!

Mimmo
