Oil on garage floor and looks like a cyclone valve...
Engine light was on...then had it cleared...has not returned

Anyone with the issue?
Have to drive 160 miles to dealer...

I think someone was perhaps making a joke at the mess you made. Secondly, why not take a flashlight and find out where the oil was coming from...

Your original post doesn't make sense so we can't help....

Also if your check engine light tripped why would you clear it? You should have pulled the code that tripped the CEL.
