Thanks for everyone's help on this. Maybe we're closing in on this!
The odor Ralph and Jeff describe sounds like mine, but mine always has a burnt, hydrocarbon component to it. Does yours?
Re Paul's suggestion of the heater matrix: would it only emit the odor if the heater is being used. In other words, now that we're into summer, will the odor become less apparent if that is its source?
I still need to check out Eric Law's suggestions of the dipstick gasket and hoses. But I know the valve cover gasket is okay. It was leaking and I had it replaced without any improvement.
All further thoughts are appreciated.
John
