Oil Filler neck crack causing this?
Ok last night i ran this 2jz supra 3 times and killed hi mall 3 times, after the run i got home was letting the car cool down and about after a minute or so i saw some smoke coming form hood area so i shut down the car popped hood open and the smoke was coming from around the plenem area near the firewall. there was oil everywhere, i mean everywhere. i took a flash light and checked everything but it was too dark and i was pretty tired to try anything and the car was hot so i was goign to check it out in the morning. i backed up my car to see if i found any leaks and there was 2 puddles not too much but quite some bit of oil, one lookedl ike from the oil filler neck and one coming from the middle of the car drivers side area. i took the plenem, tb and arm off and i found oil all inside my piping. i dont have an oil catch can but installing my ebay one today. i look down at the bottom of the filler neck where the 2 bolts are and theres a crack running from 1 bolt to the other. and ALOT of oil near that area. is this my problem? im about to seal it up good with some rtv silicone. what do you guys think? need any pics ill post some up. thanks

Well to do it right replace your oil filler neck since it is cracked. Next install your catch can for all that nice blow by our engines have at boost and add a small k&n filter to the other side of your catch can so it can breath. That should take care of it.
But the filler neck is not your problem its just blow by. your neck as seen a lot of heat over the years and now is showing its age.
