I'm new to the site. What a great resource.
I know its my first post but I need a question answered about a '96 15hp merc that I've had since new. I noticed a small puddle of oil under it the other day and never noticed one there before. Upon inspection I noticed the oil was coming out of a small hole in the lower unit but I can't tell if its threaded (see picture). My manual shows it as a hole and doesn't say what its for. With all that said what is it and is this normal? If not any ideas on a fix?
Thanks!
