Hi All,

Our 91 Previa...(we bought new...now 185K miles....) has the usual VC and distributor o ring oil leaks.......:)

But a new one showed up...seems there's an 'oil return' tube...kinda large....going from the head down to the oil pan....has anyone had a leak where it attaches to the head?

I couldn't find a part number for the gasket on Rock Auto.....does anyone know what it could be?

Thanks!!
Russ

12269-76010 on a 97

should be the same on a 91 but double check it

Thanks for that! I usually get parts at Rock auto.....they don't carry this...do you have a fav place you get parts at?

Thanks,

I just bought one recently for my 97, can't remember if I got it on ebay or an online Toyota site. I'll see if I can find the info because it was only a few months ago. I'll let you know tonight sometime

Let us know how it goes. I haven't installed mine yet because I have bigger problems, like needing a new engine
