How much time on the engine?
Which RSR is it?
Where are you located?

Since only one cylinder is oiling, could be an issue with the oil control rings in that hole, damage to the cylinder, a valve guide issue, or even a valve seal. Are you due for an engine refresh?

No far away from engine refresh (due to the engine hours, the car used only on trackdays)

is there a possibility to see a failure in Racecon? could be a bad injector the problem? or a bad spark plug or ignition coil?
