November 15, 20187 yr I see the oil sensor/switch and another valve and the rear cam cap. Leak looks a little low and to the bottom of that “valve”? anyone know if that part needs replaced or resealed..? Edited November 15, 20187 yr by idosubaru
November 24, 20187 yr If you're concerned about it, replace the AVLS gasket. Get an OEM one or a metal style aftermarket. 5 bucks or so and it should take you 15 minutes or less. They leak over time.

I hadn’t pulled one of those yet so I was uncertain in a few ways. I’ll open the FSM and get the gasket. Engine was recently out and cleaned and that’s from not many miles so it’s probably more significant than the pic suggests.

November 25, 20187 yr The switches fail ALL THE TIME. They leak from the electrical connector. The grey one. We replace them on every HG job. If they get touched in any way - even to unplug them - they get swapped out. Dealer stocks dozens. GD
