## Discrepancy

(CAN) IFSD DURING REVENUE FLIGHT, THE PILOT NOTICED TORQUE FLUCTUATION FOLLOWED BY LOSS OF OIL PRESSURE ON 1 ENGINE.  POWER LEVER WAS RETARDED TO IDLE BUT ENGINE HAD TO BE SHUTDOWN DUE TO ABNORMALLY HIGH ITT.  THE FLOATPLANE LANDED UNEVENTFULLY. THE MECHANIC NOTICED THAT ENGINE OIL WAS DRIPPING FROM THE COMPRESSOR INLET.
