Our 401M has more than 400,000 miles. travelled 625 miles from Myrtle Beach SC to Phila on July 1. Uses no oil but has a leak. Noticed oil residue around valve cover fill cap. Ordered a breather cap to replace it. Factory breather on block is clean. Thinking it may need more crankcase venting. Oil is being pushed out of lifter valley area and down the back of the block. Used less than a qt on the 1400 mile trip.
