Not disagreeing Sassmat but a detail -
The IMSB is partially submerged in oil at rest.But it is sealed so that should not matter?
The seals leak because of pressure delta.Then the oil level becomes critical?
The same bearing design (sealed+greased ) is used in alternators and in the 986/996 manual gearbox.
The debate - load vs lube will never be resolved - so just address both issues?
The Germans have a word for it "Mist" !
