As luck would have it, I'm using UV dye in the
oil of one of my other non-Cobra cars as we speak. Last night I looked for the leak in the dark under a strong UV light, and couldn't find it. I took the cap off the
oil filler tube and shined the light in there (thinking that maybe the old dye had lost its "glow") the inside of the tube, and everything I could see in there, lit up like a 60's rock stage. So the answer is
"Yes, the dye will adhere to anything that has a film of oil on it."
