Ale if you are still looking for an owner's manual you might try some of the Porsche dismantlers in the US. I know Partsheaven in Cal. buys many wrecked 964's. They may have an owner's manual.

Hi Parman, thanks but I have already bought the Italian one at my dealer. Cheap and fast. So now I have the originals in German and French that came with the car, the one in Italian from the dealer and the French one in PDF. Still I am surprised that I was not able to find a PDF of the owner's manual in English.

Picked up the car from the detailer today.
Simply a S T U N N I N G result.
I am just sorry that today's weather does not show properly, in the pics, the result achieved.

Good job for the Cup pipe
About the leakage, it doesn't seems serious, I have more or less the same.
You should check if it's coming from the top of the engine or only from where we see on the pictures.
In the past I had to replace the gasket of the oil pressure on the top of the engine, which the oil was leaking around it.

Looking great Ale_72! Those bilsteins were like money in the pockets of those old pants you forgot you had.
Regarding the leaks, it's difficult to say from the photos. But what I would first do is to look at the right rear wheel well. In front of the tire, you will see the oil tank there. See if it looks wet because if it is, I suspect addressing that one it is easier than most other leaks.
Also to check is your upper valve cover gaskets: if those don't seem to be leaking, than it's coming from the top of the engine. I suspect all your valve cover gaskets are in good shape. They look like it in the photos.
Oh and .. nice Aero!
