Engine: Volvo Penta 5.0 GXiB Serial #4012069514
After running engine on muffs during the winterization process, I noticed water dripping from a small hole immediately behind the impeller housing that is mounted on the front of the engine. The small hole is NOT in the housing itself, but in a mounting flange on the pulley to which the housing is fastened. This may be normal, but I've never noticed it before if it is. I haven't found any mention of this in the OEM manual for the engine. Any idea if this is something that needs attention?
