Don't get that, it may destroy your engine!!!!

As you may have read I put a topic up about an oil leak I recently had, with the same setup as you mention above, anyway long story short it was coming from that, when I went to loosen it it sheared off, spent an hour getting the piece out of the block and have now replaced with a remote mounted t piece kit to stop the weight of the sensor snapping it.

I only assume the leak was where it was cracked and if i hadn't sorted it sooner it would have snapped and pissed oil everywhere!
