Hi,

I recently noticed some soot / carbon deposits on the cylinder head cover of my Fiat Ducato 2.3 Multi-jet 130 (F1AE0481N) 2007. In hot weather (30C+), it has an odd problem where it fails to start until it rest / cools. Other than that it runs fine and once it is going, it keeps going.

Initially, I thought if might be an injector leak , but it looks more like it is around a breather pipe instead (see picture).

I was wondering if anyone had any thoughts about if it is related to the odd starting problem.
