I changed the oil on my 1972 914. When I start up the motor, oil starts leaking through by the top of the crank case. There is no oil leaking from the strainer. When I try and tighten the bolt it doesn't tighten at all. Is this a bad sign? Any ideas? What is that bolt for?

It may be the crankcase breather . There should be a hose there, but sometimes po's plugs them. Can you take a pic?
