Default SE heavy breather

I know there are alot of folks that have HD's heavy breather installed, has anyone experienced oil seeping around it, possibly where the chrome tube mounts to the heads?

VERY Common issue: oil leaking from the breather caps, o-rings offer a poor seal.
Can't pull the breather caps without tearing o-rings.

Can you change out a Screamin Eagle air cleaner (k&n) to the Heavy breather without having to re-map the sert?

No due to changing the air/fuel raion. Remap required.

A set of new o-rings and silicone the plugs in is the answer. I had oil seapage around the plugs on my road glide and a buddy of mine told me the fix.
