Will the oil leakage from the valve cover of SEGA engine enter the timing belt?

Oil leakage from the valve cover of Sega engine will enter the timing belt. Slight oil leakage has little effect on the engine. Leaked spark plugs and cylinder lines will be soaked in engine oil, which will affect power and fuel consumption. In severe cases, it will drip on the timing belt, which will easily make the belt slip and fall off and damage the engine. Long-term oil leakage of engine valve cover gasket will cause the seal to shrink, harden, lose elasticity, and even break seriously.

Introduction of engine structure

In the engine structure, the cavity space where the valve end is located is called the valve chamber; In most automobile engine structures, the valve end is connected with the camshaft through tappets or tappets. The movement of the valve is regulated by the camshaft. Most of the camshafts of modern engines are placed above the cylinder head, so the valve chamber is also called the camshaft chamber, or the oil chamber of the cylinder head. There is a camshaft cover above the valve chamber, which forms an approximately closed cavity with the cylinder head.

My car leaked oil (especially the valve cover). After I went to the repair shop to change the valve cover gasket, it didn't take long to start leaking oil again. At this time, car owners began to wonder if the repair shop had changed the cushion. I think they do, but they may have overlooked a problem, that is, the positive crankcase ventilation valve has been blocked.
