Top of the head is probably a valve cover gasket. Bottom of the head could be a head gasket. If the former, no problem. If the latter, you might find oil in the radiator/overflow tank or water in the oil (with change in levels to coincide). That's a BIG problem! ----------------- John Weiss Seattle, WA remove *nospam* from e-mail address for reply Paul <paul(nospam)nopsamletters.karoo.co.uk> wrote in message news:845r2m$7nm$1nopsamrnews.com... > I own a 1994 900s - it's high on miles now (96,000) but still runs like new. > However, in recent weeks I've noticed a small amount of oil leakage near the > top of the cylinder head.
