Aquido, you did not write about WHERE the leak was coming from.

Boxsters and 996's are notorious for cam cover leaks, which aren't catastrophic. I have one in fact that bugs me, but my mechanic tells me not to worry about because many of them do this. It's not common for it to mess up the whole engine like the RMS leaking will do.

BTW, some Boxsters are being fitted with the Cayenne's RMS (it fits) as it's more sturdy and is said to last a lot longer. Installation is harder from what I've read though. Don't take my word for it on this one... It's a result of some online reading I've been doing and I am not sure of its real-world truth.
