Just an update on the suspected oil leak. It went in for its first service today and they checked it out for the leak. They said thet checked the torque settings on the bolts on the left side where the weep was between the upper and lower crank case halves and they said that they got a slight turn on each bolt. They looked at the week and they said it had a tacky feel to it so they determined that it was the grease used during assembly of the motor. They said they were 99% sure it was that but they said to keep an eye on it to see if anything appears again. I read on here that other people have found deposits of this grease seeping out of joints for a while. I am not a 100% convinced yet as it was from a joint that relies only on sealant so i guess onlly time will tell. Thanks for everyones input as it was good to hear other peoples stories
