Was it a genuine one you managed to get off ebay?Mine had one on when i fitted it all up, prob isnt needed with stock cast but i cant speak for how flat the adapter is so just assists.
Im still a bit puzzled to why you seem to have had so many issue with turbos and oil leaking etc. Fairly play for sticking at it all the time and cracking on though.
Tbf it all probably lies with the age of this engine. 240k so shes pretty old, unsure if increased blowby would pressure the oil up a little more but think its deffo a factor to look at. Finally been offered somewhere to swap the engine over. Tempted to try push my luck and see if i can use the chaps shed to build a fresh lump up to.
