Ebpv leak

Pretty sure my ebpv is leaking. It runs down the back of my motor and to the black drip pan. I dont really have time to fix this right now so im curious how bad it will eventually get. will the seals or orings that are there eventually blow out and oil will go everywhere or will it kust keep leaking?

I'm pretty sure the EBPV shouldn't leak unless activated by the solenoid. Are you sure your pedestal O-rings aren't leaking?

Ok, I would get in there with some Simple Green and clean things up and watch it then you would be sure and you could go from there.
