[QUOTE="shawnfish, post: 263730, member: 4468"] you should be able to feel even the smallest amount of oil residue below the exaust hole, if you dont id bet its your gearcase, that motor i think has the removable skeg. ceck the seal there and the prop seal. like mentioned above just drain the oil in a pan and even a drop of water will sit on top of the oil. if there is a small amount your fine, even a little more will not damage anything but id get the leak located and resealed. not sure either but it should have a gearcase magnet, check that for metal shavings from gear damage, its normal to have some metal dust from normal wear but anything bigger is an issue id adress...
