I am a new owner of a 2008 Mini S with the N14 engine and I just logged a P1497 code. I think I traced it to what appears to be a modified PCV system on this car. At least I have not seen a diagram of such a system on any sites. Can anyone tell me whether this is standard? It looks like the back PCV hose comes out to a manifold made up of rubber hose and plastic T's where each intake manifold port has it's own supply of oil-laden vapor. Well, the first "T" broke off and I now have a leak. Where would I get parts to replace this system? Ideas? This is NOT the standard PCV hose I see for sale on many sites that wraps around to the intake manifold at the bottom!
