hI ALL,I have a citroen c5 with the 110 hdi 8valve engine.On the very top of the engine at the same place as the oil filler cap is at on the other side there seams to be a blank ?? As if the filler cap could be put there if needed.I realise that's rubbish but hope you can envisage the bit now.Well I have an oil leak from there running down into the injector area.
Does anyone know what it is and if it has a seal or can you get the blank if thats what it is and does it screw out or pop out with the aid of a screw driver.
Any info would be much appreciated as I think it's getting worse.

I can see what you mean, looking at the parts site, but unfortunately it all comes as one piece, and the only way you can buy it is complete cover, gasket and oil filler cap - at a shade under £80

Might be possible to take it off and repair it with something, but probably not worth the aggro.
