Since I dug up the bulletin and my indie and I did it on mine, he's been commenting that he's noticing more and more oily 9-5 engines, just never focused on it before.
He's ordering a batch of kits to keep in stock. Tomorrow, I'll search the hardware stores for tubing that I can fit into the oil trap/box hole, to keep the drill centered and not eating into the plastic sides as you drill out your enlarged 'breather' hole.
We're going to do my sister's 2000 soon, that has a weeping front crank seal.
Wouldn't be surprised if the weeping seal is connected and that the problem is endemic, but only slowly manifesting and maybe only catastrophic once in a while or over long-long term.
