Oil Leak Near Inlet Manifold

[-33-]

Had a look at the engine bay of my R33 (stock standard) and just before the inlet manifold oil is leaking out of the cooler piping seal.

Im guessing that its engine oil being spat up backwards through the inlet manifold... running a catch can could collect it? There doesnt seem to be THAT much oil coming out (by comparison my mates calais turbo had a screwed head and that was filling the catch can) but I was afraid it might be my head on its way out.

PLUS (probably unrelated) my car stalls a bit too easily. For example if i sit in neutral and pump the brake pedal for long enough the revs will drop and stall the car. Thinking it might just be a loose fan belt but it doesnt seem all that loose.

Help?
