Oil leak on 850 project 850 1995

All three of our 850s had oil under their engine covers - our base '95 855 was the worst.

As we purchased each one, I cleaned them up.

From what I could determine, the oil was spilled around the filler, as I found fresh oil after oil changes, and at a couple of random checks.

What I started to do was to put an old scrunchie ( a pony tail holder ) around the filler whenever I sent a car for service.

No more oil under the cover.
