White goo in oil breather pipes?!
After removing my rocker cover the other day I discovered that my oil breather pipes and rocker to sump oil return pipe where covered with that horrible white goo stuff. Didn't find any in the top of the head or sump when taken apart a few weeks ago though.
What courses this stuff to appear and will upgrading to a Bailey oil breather system help?
Cheers,
dan

Mine don't do it and my journey to work was about 3 miles. With the current job it's about 500yds
Mind you don't use it at all for work at all now as the short runs can't do it much good

Saw your car at the pod mate, looking sweet on them wheels 
Quick question about the bailey oil breathers fitting kits.... is it just the pipes and hose clips that you need or does it include a bracket? Reason i ask is because i'd rather have SFS oil hoses.
Use the hoses of your choice
