    Also, someone mentioned an oil leak on their 258 a
    little while back; I’ve had a leak for a while (so has
    my Jeep), and when I checked the oil yesterday I
    noticed that the dipstick tube has fresh oil around
    it. Now, I have NOT tried to fill the engine’s oil
    through the dipstick tube, so I get the impression
    that it is somehow pushing oil out of the engine. The
    oil is NOT over-full, and I know the rear main and/or
    pan gasket is leaking, but what would cause the engine
    to push oil that high?
    I even looked at the valve cover, and it’s fine, no
    leaks around it. Someone mentioned blocked EGR; could
    that cause this?
