Default Volvo 850/Turbo - Oil Stains around the PTC?

Last week I noticed wet oil stains around the PTC, which I believe is part of the PCV system. I have not seen any oil drip on the ground yet. I would rather fix the problem before the oil leak worsens. I suspect it is the PCV system, but don't know where to start. Any suggestions?


Model; Volvo 1996, Turbo
Year: 1996

That tube and part are just a small part of the vent system. Here is an illustrated guide I made for my T5 V70 GLT..................

Hope this helps.

Jhonny,


In the PCV diagram:

Where does 'G' connect?

I believe 'F' is the inlet to the Oil Separator. Does 'E' also connect to the crankcase? Why 2 connections to the crankcase?

Hose "G" connects one part to the vent box and the small tube connects right to the side of the intake manifold.
