Hi HS, did you ever get an answer as to why your oil in the head wasn't draining back down to the sump with the car at rest? There was a discussion on one of your threads where the question was raised but the answer was never clear. I can understand that a small'ish amount of oil will always remain in the head but your engine seemed to have a lot in the effected side based on the pictures you posted. Shouldn't that have drained back to the sump (albeit slowly) once the engine was turned off?
I ask because I can see me taking the rear scavenge pump off this weekend and being covered in oil as it pours out the hole from behind the pump!
Cheers
