I've just been out to see about jacking up the MH to check the brake pads when I noticed an oil stain on the engine just by the join with the gearbox. It appears to be coming from where a black plastic box joins into the engine and that box sits just behind and above the starter motor. It has pipes that go to the sump and also the rocker cover so must be some sort of breather box. The junction into the engine appears to be a push fit circular affair about an inch or so in diameter. I'm not familiar with deisels in general or this engine in particular. Is this something to worry about. we are off to France in 9 days time for two weeks.
Edit: This is on a 2006 X244 chassis. Engine has done nearly 21,000 miles. Oil is not dripping but stain has gone to bottom of engine .
