missing rear cam cap n/a. leaking oil -Solved-

Post by SiCkSTi04 »

today i checked my oil to find it really low. i then started looking for any visible leaks and found that the rear driver cam cap is missing. i guess it popped off. heres a picture of it.

my question is whats the purpose of it, i found it always loose and i dont have that bracket. planning on heading to the local yard tomorrow for a replacement, is there any seals i need to use when installing?

-Solved- replaced the rear cam plug with a new one. problem fixed!
