Man I can't figure this one out... there's just so much stuff in the way I don't even know where to begin. For reference, the leak appears to be coming from the accessory end of the engine on the passenger side, about the height of the heads. It looks to be coming from the end of the corrugated hose that you can barely see in the pictures. Any ideas on this one? Thanks. -Mag 7C44C73C-FB17-4144-A3B7-53D0F35C40D0_zpsqrn3551i.jpg In the picture below you can see some sort of an end with a cross in the middle of it... this is where I "think" it's coming from. No idea what this thing is. 24DD1C96-3E80-4336-A662-24C36A532342_zpsbji4tbyg.jpg In the picture below the corrugated hose 'seems' to be where the leak originates but I can't quite tell. 8C779112-6727-4318-8232-CFE3E698E760_zpsu6arukpp.jpg

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Man, one of those $5 USB cameras would be handy about now. Have you looked at a parts diagram of that area of the engine? Sorry I am not more helpful.
That's the AOS crankcase vent valve. You must have a '02 or older? Just replace parts 6 (the first 6), 7, and 22 and that should fix it. It looks like PITA to get to it though. http://www.autoatlanta.com/porsche-p...section=104-10 Note there's an o-ring on the hose quick connector where it connects to the vent. It's not shown in the parts disgram but it's the same part 22.
Thanks man! That looks like it's most likely it... and yes, it does look like a major pita to get at.
