oil coming out of screw hole

[ptnov]

Hi,

So i removed the vboost intake and it had silicone sealant and oil coming out of one of the screw holes. Is this normal? It isn't leaking oil when driving, only noticed it now when i was gonna change my cracked vboost rubbers. Maybe it was the silicone sealant that stopped it from pouring out?

If this isn't normal, how would one fix a problem like this?

Thanks!

Pretty sure that's normal. Mine did the same. I put a dab o' rtv, and put it all back together. No problems since.

both rear cyl bolt holes outside r/l cyl are oil passages if you look these bolts are different lengths they must go back in same holes

Right rear outside and left front outside are the short bolts that go into non-pressurized oil galleys. They need sealant on the threads to keep the oil in.
