I'm very familiar with the situation, and though it is quite clear to me the problem remains, and could be such a simple engineering/ manufacturing fix to solve permanently, at the end of the day, it is nothing more than an oil leak. A very inconvenient location for an oil leak, but an oil leak. Would it be nice if Porsche fixed the problem for good? Absolutely. However, its still an oil leak and if it happens at lower mileage under warranty, oh well, if it happens at higher mileage out of warranty, its a good excuse to do your clutch. To me, its not that big a deal. Inconvenient, annoying, unfortunate, etc.
Now, IMS failure, THATS a big deal!
