Any idea's Evening LeDucBmw Yes, I would never pull a BMW cyl head off unless I was 100% sure that was the leak. Make sure your front fork seal isn't leaking & blowing back, also make sure your oil cooler or oil cooler hose isn't seeping & running back & down. Also check the cam chain tensioner seal for leaking & check the little cylinder bottom bolts for being tight. If the oil leak started after your last valve adjustment then make sure the little rubber donut around the spark plug well isn't leaking. Link to comment

I can speak from personal experience that an extra 1/4 turn of a socket wrench can solve what can be a big leak. Link to comment
