Oil Feed Banjo Bolt

[thereef]

Hey guys, finally got the car started! So happy..

However, my oil feed banjo bolt (from head) is spewing oil.. I knew it was gonna happen, but hoped for the best.. The bolt literally can be pushed in and out, so I'm assuming it's too small? Or are these supposed to be able to pop in and out of place?

Anyways.. The car ran with this bold prior to being taken apart so I'm a little confused.

Anyone have any experience with something similar to this? If not, know where I can get a new banjo bolt?

Heli coil it... No need to be the hulk tightening it. Its only thin aluminum.

Bought a heli-coil kit. Came with a 13/23 bit, but I've read that it needs an 11/32 bit? Please confirm/deny/explain.

Thanks fellas.


Nevermind, found another thread that said 13/32, guessing that the people quoting 11/32 were just mistaken.
