so i have an oil leak coming from inside the air intake. it looks like its coming out of the air filter. Any ideas what this means

assuming your supercharged, i'd say you got some shaft seal issues, or a pcv problem. You might need a catch can, or a rebuild on the blower

I had the same exact issue. For my case. I was blowing oil threw my PVC into the intake. The issue was the stock piston rings couldn't handle the boost and I had bad piston ring blow by witch creates enough pressure in your crankcase to blow oil up and threw your valve covers into the pcv. The way you can fix this is new piston rings. The way I tried to fix it was 1. Catch can. Didn't work and blew oil right threw it. 2. baught a mmr short block for $3500 never hand the issue again. Also. I got rid of the pcv and hooked up a crankcase Evac for $40 off of summit and works great. Only issue is I'll never pass emmisions

What I would recommend for you though. Is new piston rings, thats the only real fix to piston ring blow by. Otherwise more problems will Arise besides sucking up oil where the airs soposed to go. But you will build up way more engine sludge and your loosing power by not having a good seal in your cylinders

I bet if you look inside your supercharger you got oil in there too. Witch is ok to clean with parts cleaner and is no big deal.
