Oil Leak - top of cylinder head diesel engine

    I have a Peugeot with a 1.9 non turbo diesel engine (D9B). Oil breather pipe
    has been replaced but I still am getting oil collecting round the injectors.
    Not a lot and the problem went away for a period (approx 300 miles) when I
    cleaned around that area with gunk.

    I have changed the engine oil recently but the discharged stuff is
    discoloured - ie old. Any ideas anyone

    TIA

    thanks for the reply

    Not the gasket. I'll try the gunk approach again.
    Don't know how long it had a spray of oil from the breather
    pipe.
    Not familiar with diesel engines!
