I am a V6 newbie and yesterday I noticed the same vent pipe arrangement tucked in with other pipes along the top of the engine on the passenger side. It is easy to spot with the hook shaped bend in the end and same bung arrangement.
Mike at Wheelquick said that the engine is not prone to the same cooling worries that the Diesel engine has but a similar filling procedure would not be out of place since the same vent pipe arrangement is installed.
Just a thought, hope it helps,
Tim
