I decided to check a leakage along the exhaust system by the method of blocking the tail pipe with the hand.
When i blocked the tail pipe with my hand the engine stay running as usual,it didn't stall,it didn't changed a bit and i didn't hear any leakage sound.Since i didn't have a second hand to block the tail pipe,i blocked the tail pipe completely secured with a band,while checking for leak
along the exhaust pipe under the car.
I didn't manage to see or hear any leakage,but the strange thing is that the engine was running as usual while the tail pipe is completely block for more than 5 minutes and even if i was leaving the block on the tail pipe for more time i assume that it was keep on running.
My question:Is it possible that in those +5 minutes that the tail pipe was blocked,all the gasses get into the oil sump through the old piston rings and contaminates the oil?
I worry that i did a mistake to block the tail pipe so long?
Thanks.
