Hmm,

A definate crankcase leak.

On the M30 there is a tube from the crankcase to the intake, look under the intake, very hard to see and harder to understand.

Get a spray can of starting fluid to find the leak.

Later,

Hmm,

The transfer tube is a spring loaded metal tube with an o-ring seal.

Putting it back in the connection usually fixes it.

Later,
