Jdm swap leaking gas from IDK were
yeah i wouldn't be to the level of paranoid about fuel being everywhere. i'd just blow out all the rats nest lines and do a couple oil changes on it after allowing the engine to drain the oil pan thoroughly.

Thanks for that. Lucky for me. I have all the emissions deleted so all i gotta clean is the oil cooler and oil pan then. On another note, by any chance would you guys know what throttle cable i can use from another car? I need a long one to loop it around. Since my TB is a Jspec. The linkage is fac8ng the opposite side. Thanks!

surprised no one caught that, i noticed the fuel feed hose going to the emissions line within seconds of looking at the picture.
JDM it is:
forward hard line is from the fuel pump>fuel filter>this port
top line is crankcase ventilation
rearward line nearest the firewall/oil filter is the fuel return line
on USDM cars the fuel feed and return lines are switched, turbo or n/a the orientation is all the same with the exception of the backwards JDM engines.
the main seal may be ok once it airs out for a few days, but you will need to at least drain your fuel soaked oil now and put in fresh before you turn the engine at all.

Nope. I can go take a pic of my jspec s5 if you'd like. I started a thread about this a while back. Was really confused why my fuel system wasn't backwards. Turns out only jspec s4 are backwards.
Edit: I guess i didn't start it but her you go.
