riki1975 3 #1 Posted June 9, 2020 Hello, I was checking out the valves in my 520h and noticed a big gaping hole in the Valve Chamber. Is the repairable or is the engine toast? Thank You Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ol550 830 #2 Posted June 9, 2020 What's the other side look like? Looks like a place for oil to drain back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
riki1975 3 #3 Posted June 9, 2020 I am not sure, the other side is behind whatever sits behind the flywheel in the attached picture. I don't have a tool to remove the flywheel. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Anthony Wendover 124 #4 Posted June 9, 2020 This is correct to be there for oil return. Nothing to repair or worry about. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tuneup 1,452 #6 Posted June 9, 2020 Watch when you reassemble the valves - plug that hole or a cotter will find its way to the cam cover and that flywheel will have to come off. You need not ask how I know this... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
