PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE listen. I DYI'd the AOS last year and did not change the bottom tube because I was told it was always the top the had the issue. Recently the car had been dumping oil on the ground. I just had a friend of mine who is a Porsche cup car mech. dig into it to find the root of the issue. After removing a ton of oil from the engine compartment we found the bottom tube had cracked and split and was indeed the issue in question. So if you do do the AOS PLEASE change that piece also. Trust me otherwise you will not drive the car and the drop another grand into finding what the problem is.
