    A week ago I found an oil leak from the cyclone separator in valve cover which was leaking oil around my coils, will this updated valve cover drink less oil? There looks to be a small design change, there's this plastic piece protruding out the back towards the AEM airbox.

    There is a TPS that has the red piece removed upon installation and a small black insert put in it's place..... Not sure why this step needs to be performed at the time of installation... Seems like it could be provided fully assembled right out of the box...

    Yes, your part number is the latest valve cover...
