Re: Tohatsu 30 four stroke leaking oil

What is your exact model and serial? There is a tech bulletin for some 30 hp motors.

Those are drains that allow water out of the housing when the motor is out of the water, so it doesn't stagnate, corrode, or freeze. Check your LU lube level and condition. If milky, there is a seal, gasket, or o-ring leak. Also check the crankcase dipstick. The oil can't be overfilled.
