Oil fume from hvac
Oil fumes are coming from the air intake of the hvac into the car.
1. any way to program the recirculating to stay on unless manual turned off?
2. Any way to pipe fresh air to the intake filter instead of air above the exhaust pipe?
3. An inexpensive fix?
oil leak is in bell housing. Can find the exact reason but suspect rear crank seal leaking rate is 3 drops overnight - 1 liter 10,000 miles.

The air is sucked in from the right firewall through at filter. See link:

The wind splashes the oil on the exhaust below the filter. The fume gets sucked through the exposures underside of the filter.
