Thanksk to all!!  I did the clean the hell out of the area before the post
but not the talc.  Is the breather tower cleaning pretty self-explanatory
once I get it off?  Hope ift's not the bore plugs or oil pump!! And the
pipe is wet above the gasket at the bvottom, so I don't think that's
leaking.  More as I get to it.  $5 a quart for that Mobil 1 gets pricey if
you leave a lot of iton the ground while parked!
