Does any happen to know the size of banjo bolt on air/oil separator where it connects to the oil pan? Its number 25 on the picture below, part number 999 134 021 02

Don't forget the spacer (30). _________________ Toofah King Bad

The problem I have is that when I bought the car, it didn't have either the bolt or the spacer. And I recently discovered that the oil hose was not in a usable state. Since the oil hose alone is a fortune, I was planning on deleting it temporarily and just put a bolt in the hole on the oil pan, but I can't seem to find a bolt that fits. It's not a 10, 12, or 14 which leads me to believe it's a 13mm but before I run to the hardware store to grab a 13mm (which are uncommon anyway), I'd like to make sure I know what size the bolt is.
I suppose I could just buy the banjo bolt right now but it's $12 plus shipping so I'm looking at $25 just for a banjo bolt  _________________ Brian

Oil Filter Service here in town can renew your drain hose cheaply, while you wait. If it's more than 30 minutes, there is a bar around the corner from the shop where they will call you. They might have your hollow bolt as well.
Sounds also like your shop might benefit from one of THESE. _________________ Toofah King Bad

That's awesome! I might have to try that _________________ Brian

BTW, I would NOT run an unknown condition motor without a functional AOS.

P.S. If you go to OFS, I'll bring Shaggy over and buy you a beer! _________________ Toofah King Bad

It's only a temporary solution; I plan on replacing the AOS entirely either with original parts or aftermarket some how. I've confirmed it is indeed a brand spanking new engine, I just need to get it to turn over. I don't plan on actually driving it with the AOS deleted.
Truth be told, the hose running from the canister to the oil pan was some how flattened on one side (right around where it bends around to attach to the oil pan) and was stuck on something so I pulled on it and essentially split it in half. I should probably just replace it but it's a $100 part. _________________ Brian

No need to replace, OFS can build you a new one. _________________ Toofah King Bad

Sounds like I need to get in touch with them. According to Google, their shop is kind of right across the river from my work. They're off Market street, right?
I looked at aftermarket options but all of them just focus on causing the oil to pool up in an element you have to empty or replace. Porsche's method is much more logical; filtering the oil from the air and draining the oil back into the oil pan. Can't beat that. _________________ Brian
