Thanks JFP. OK, AOS this winter to keep from oiling the entire intake tract. I’ll order the ‘Porsche’ original part along with the Mayhew Pro remote cable clamp pliers from Pelican tomorrow. Nearest dealer is 90 miles away and I’m counting on Pelican to have a higher turnover on the org AOS than the dealer anyway.

Didn’t take much to convenience me 😛 Good news regarding the camshaft deviations 👍
