Well I got to work this morning and there was smoke pouring out from under the hood. I popped the hood open only to find that the entire engine bay covered in oil. It seems to be coming from the oil cap.
Does anyone know what type of oil cap we can use? I would like to get a nicer one that would look good with the powdercoated valve cover.
Any help is much appreciated.

That sucks, I've had the same thing happen but with my dipstick flying out.
I've been told that Carquest might have caps that will work for us but I didn't look into it.
To make the cap look better, some companies sell underhood dress up kits with chrome or billet aluminum lids that you can glue onto the top of the oil cap , steering fluid cap, coolant cap etc. It gives it a nice clean look if all the caps are billet as opposed to the stock ones with light blue yellow and red caps and dipstick.
