<E30> Problems with crank case breather pipe

["Milliet, Ron P." <RPMILLIE@xxxxxxxxx>]

> I have an 86 325e that I recently rebuilt the head on.
> I had trouble installing the head particularly with the
> breather pipe.  I managed to get it done, but ever since
> the pipe has a MAJOR air leak where it connects with
> the bottom of the intake.  The problem is the top of the 
> pipe will not completely seat in the intake.  I am not sure
> what I am doing wrong??

> Questions:
> 
> Is the top seal an o-ring or a square lip seal?
> 
> Wound a breather pipe from an 88 325i fit the
> eta motor?  I have an extra motor, but it is a
> M20 not an eta.
