The problem with the 996 engine is that the engine halves and crankshaft cradle halves are joined together in midline. Any significant non-concentricity from these 4 joined pieces results in leak, no matter how many times you change the seal or redesign it . The 997 engine is of similar design - you hope they have solved it , since they couldn't over the 8 years of Boxster/996 build.
GT3/Turbo/GT2 engine is constructed differently and doesn't have this problem.

I vaguely recall someone (on this Board?) indicating that RMS leaks are less likely, but not unheard of, on GT3/GT2/TTS engine. True?

And except seeking for oil leaks underneath a parked car, how else I should detect it ?
Should I expect a high oil consumption if I have a RMS leak?
