Just wait till you have a nice Shell Rotella oil change and you'll know there's a vent tube nearby......as it will vent right through your ventilation system when your sitting at idle ............You've got to put about 500 miles on some types of diesel engine crankcase oil after an oil change just to stop that stinky, sulfury smell from coming in.

I read somewhere on one of the Diesel forums that Geno's at one time offered a tube extention, that routed the vent tube away from the ventilation air pick-up area, and that fixed the burnt oil smell coming through the vents.
Someone here probably remembers it, or has installed it.
