Finally have some time to go over my sled I bought about a month ago. 2001 SRX 700. Noticed a bolt missing from powervalve housing and oil has leaked out? Is there a gasket or o ring thats causing this? Can' see oil leaking from bolt hole unless theres supposed to be sealant on that bolt?

Since bolt is missing did it just leak out as housing probably isn't flush tight to gasket? Hoping no damage has occurred to engine or powervalves. Piucs you can see missing bolt and where oil has leaked onto exhaust.
 
The bolt would be removed when cleaning the power-valves so it's either missing or broken off. The oil leak is most likely coming from the weep/vent hole in the PV cable housing. If it becomes excessive, you'll need to replace the PV shaft seals.
