Have you looked on the Greek X19 club site which has all the workshop manuals to download, the Fiat ones?

Just a thought, your breather pipe...it might have a flame preventing mess so far down the rubber pipe. It could be blocked possibly giving you a slight pressure build up. If you can't remove it to clean it then it might be worth investing in a new mess insert and rubber pipe.

Hi I removed rear wheel so I could access breather and removed pipe completely and pipe was clear , I poked wire directly into gearbox breather but it only goes in about an inch then it stops it’s hitting metal I think so I think it’s clear . Can’t figure out why it keeps leaking if I tighten it anymore it affects speedo doing my head in now Cheers
