Default Oil Leak from Swirl Arm Lever - help!!

First post for me - hopefully not the last.

I just discovered that the Swirl Arm has become disconnected on my 2006 D5 - may have been that way for years, I've owned it from new - car drives fine.

The thing that drew my attention is an oil leak from the "lever" in the cylinder head that the Swirl Arm attaches to - the lever also seems quite loose - no resistance, it just flaps around.

It looks like to fix the oil leak would be a big job - does anyone have any experience, my local indy guy said to take the car to Volvo and get their opinion.

Many thanks for any insights and assistance.

David
