Abstract

An internal combustion engine has an induction conduit for the induction of fresh air. A section of the induction conduit extends over the cylinder head cover. In order to achieve the simplest and most operationally reliable engine space ventilation possible, the induction conduit section is provided with at least one connection stub pipe which protrudes through an opening provided in the cylinder head cover into a camshaft space. The camshaft space is connected to the induction conduit in an advantageously simple manner.
