Vacuum leak oil stick ?!

[Elvir]

Is it possible that a oilstick two seals/O-ring when in bad condidion, can make vacuum leak on E30 ? It is number 15 on photo :

Also , I want to have one good MAF in reserve. I got good deal for MAF from E36 318i M43. Whether it can be used for my E30 318i M40 without any problems ?

[323i E30]

If the dipstick doesn’t seal well it will cause a vacuum leak indeed.

No idea about the M43 parts compatibilty with the M40.

Ok, thanks!

Also, I put EVAP valve and ICV valve from E36 m43 on E30 m40 and everything is ok. In EPC MAF number 13 62 7 547 980 from E36 m43 is compatible with E30 318i M40. So, did any try that "combination" in practise...
