I attempted searching through the threads here and even tried on google but came up with nothing. I've got an 03 ProX 440 with 92 heads on currently with a full top-end rebuild minus new powervalve parts. When my motor blew up i did have some scratching on the slides in the powervalves but didn't seem to be enough to really make a difference, however i've got about 180 miles on my rebuild and its had oil coming out of the powervalves since. I was just curious as to if this could be caused by my slides or is am I just running my oil too rich? I know these sleds tend to be ticking time bombs when they aren't riden and taken care of properly so I've always been a bit generous with my oil mixing 4 ounces for every gallon. Any ideas?
Oil out of powervalves?

Is it coming out the little holes on the top of the valves? If so your bellows are torn would be my guess.
Yes it is coming from the little holes, its not like Niagara falls but that is where it is from. When I had the motor apart, they didn't appear torn however I was exactly focused on the valves themselves. Ill have to check it out 
Finally got around to the simple task of taking off the valve caps. one side was sealed correctly and no oil leak inside. The other was not sealed correctly and I did find a miniscule tear on it, lots of oil inside. Thanks very much for the quick help hint. I'm not much of a motor-head so it's easier for me when I know what I'm trying to look for. 20 bucks each for bellows and if im replacing one I may as well get the other.

Also check the bolts that hold the caps on mine come loose even with lock tight and end up leaking.
