I think I found my problem. The evap valve leaks badly around the diaphragm. There is a simple test in the manual and mine failed. I am attempting to silicone it back together for now. These things are designed to fail. Bad Audi, bad bad Audi.
I also found the oil leak - I hope it is just the valve cover but it might be the right side cam bearing. That will suck.
Once again German rubber doesn't last as long as a bowl of cereal. This gasket has about 30k miles on it.
