## Discrepancy

PRIOR TO LANDING OIL PRESSURE DROPPED TO POINT WHERE CREW ELECTED TO SHUTDOWN ENGINE.  AN EMERGENCY WAS DECLARED AND ACFT PERFORMED AN UNEVENTFUL SINGLE ENG LANDING.  POST FLIGHT INSP DETERMINED THAT CHAIN SECURING OIL TANK CAP HAD BEEN PINCHED BETWEEN THE CAP AND TANK CAUSING A LOSS OF OIL.  REPLACED O-RING, SERVICED OIL AND RETURNED ACFT TO SERVICE.
