O-ring is all.. Loosen the bolt holding the dipstick and push down on the tube and tighten at the same time to put some pressure on the o ring.

I agree though, you probably had some venting issues..

what plugs the hole on the dipstick tube?? (block side)....I got a rubber oring and a copper washer....mine started to leak today...I think its cause I was experimenting with some crank case venting...
I'm just wondering what is factory to seal the oil dipstick tube??
my old engine never had anything on it when I pulled it apart...

'82 Rabbit, I put on a euro vnt-15, 2.25" DP, 2.5" exhaust, the result.....it whistled.

I removed the turbo, made a toilet bowl 2.5" DP, the result....it was deafening. Now it has a homemade muffler up front and a thrush in the rear, the result.....less loud.
