New Briggs engine oil leak - breather assembly.

Does not matter, this should be covered under your warranty.

I don't think I'll bother with the hassle. I've already done too many mods such as getting rid of the recoil starter.

Hello, I have a new Briggs and Stratton 500 series engine with an oil leak on the bottom of the breather assembly, I tried tightening the bolts and it is still leaking. Kinda bummed a new engine would do this. Here is a picture of the leak:

I appreciate any help any of you can offer. :smile:

There is something usually metal or copper on the gasket
