What do You think, should be this an easy fix as replacing the liquid seal around the sc, intercooler cores and manifold?
My guess is, the only place the oil can go from is the sc gears on the front, so I'm wondering how is it looking inside.

Matt@Cosworth can You provide some hints to that? Are those assembled with some three-bond liquid seals (similiar as oil pan)?

Front right side, just after engin get into temperature.


Back of the ICs


Wet screws on the back of the IC assembly.


Some oil even accumulated on top of the engine

Cheers
Did you ever get to the bottom of this? Mine is doing this too.
