I have grease leaking here so how concerned should I be?
Should I just add grease from time time or is this something that needs to be fixed ASAP?
Is High Temp wheel bearing grease ok to use for the motor left/right pivot function?

Id say thats completely normal. If your haveing problems with it getting washed out, try Green Grease. Its 100% waterproof so its perfect for outboards and trailer hubs. I use it for everything because its whats in my grease gun. Its pricey at about 8 bucks a tube but a tube of grease goes a long way.
 
If it stops leaking out there you have problems. I hit mine a few times each season depending on use - it is fine

I like the idea of the Green Grease - where do I get some?
