I have what appears to be an oil leak where the starter motor mounts to the alternator cover. It is not leaking from above but the lower mount bolt is moist with some kind of oil. doesn't appear to be red. Any thoughts on what this could be? I assume there should be no oil in the alternator ...2018 roadster with 490 miles.
 
The alternator runs in oil on an R3. You could pull the bolt, clean the oil off it and put a little silicon on it before you reinstall it. That might fix it. If not, new starter gasket.
