    From what i can see from that pic you've got the pcv hose connected correctly. If you've got fuel coming out of where you've highlighted you'd need to be getting plenty into the sump via some poor compression ring sealing, pressurising your crankcase and forcing it out the breather.

    Compression test results? Otherwise, not sure how you've managed it. To be forcing a noticable amount of fuel out of the pcv hose it'd be running real rough. Factory ecu etc?

    I get a tiny bit of oil from that PCV Line. That is what catch cans are for. (Here is where instead of asking about them, you use the search function.)

    Looks like you have a series 1 silvertop. Get the heat shield and polish it up and cover up those extractors ;-> On rainy days my bonnet would fry the raindrops into steam when I had the heat shield off the extractors.

    unless its from the return hose{efi} or you really stuffed up, there can be no fuel coming out the vacuum hose.

    More info required.
    When did you get the engine, what have you done to it, when's the fuel coming out, how much is coming out, is it coming out the engine end or intake end, etc etc etc.

    You can't expect people to give any helpful response with the amount of information you have given.

    ok i had the engine running then i blew a 30amp fuse (postive teminal of the battery), then i notice there was fuel on the top of injector number 2, the oring was damaged so i replaced all the oring's for the injectors then put it all back together & she started then died after about 5 mins, noticed fuel coming out of the air filter cause it came from the breather hose from the rocket cover that runs into the intake pipe
    theres a fair amount of fuel coming out
