"I work on Subaru almost everday at the shop and can honestly say that at least 6 out of 10 car have front oil seal,head gasket or valve cover gasket leaks. One question- how bad do the RMS leak on 986/996?? Is it just a drop here and there or do they blow massive amounts out? I've seen NA cars that will leak five liters out in as little as 10km's of driving."

Interesting on the subs. We have had them for years and no oil leaks of any kind.

Anyway, the oil leaks on the Porsche motors are usually slow ones in my experience. I have had cam covers, RMS and valve covers adn they are slow leaks, not big drips.
