Hi all, seem to have developed an oil leak on 893 fireblade engine. Think it coming from the pipe off the filter but not sure?
any ideas sourcing this pipe[name or part no] or other areas to look at?
Am very new to the kitcar group and my tech no how is limited.
thanks.

The lump with pipes is an oil cooler that the filter spins onto, it's secured by a central nut and seals with a rubber 'O' ring, I would expect to see water leaking from the pipe not oil. This is assuming you mean the oil filter of course.

Can you put up a picture of the part ?
