Guys in Holland we had several cars with this issue. It's the magnetic valve of the oil pump which leaks.
There is an official retrofit kit for this at the Dutch MINI dealers.
The biggest issue is the oil goes via the line up to the ECU!!! A friend of mine had serious issues with this during his guarantee period. The car was for 2 months a MINI Amsterdam and MINI NL did a final inspection. After this more people found out the N18 has this issue... So please check all your cars on leaking on this topic!!!!
