Hello Everyone,
I bought an M1009 a few weeks back and have been slowly working through it. Last weekend I did the oil change and fuel filter change. While under the hood following the fuel filter bleeding process I noticed some oil on the passenger side header. It looks like it could be from the valve cover. After some research here I've found that the valve cover seals are a common issue as well as clogged CDR's, but before I started to tear into it I wanted to run it by some experts to see their thoughts. Please have a look.
