My 1990 Mercruiser 454 has about 60 hours after being rebuilt. I have an small oil leak that appears to be at the joint after the oil pan and before the transmission. I removed the bell housing and found the area, including the flywheel, relatively dry. I notice a small amount of oil under the distributor (shaft gasket worn out). I checked the obvious points (oil pan seal, oil pan drain, dip stick base hole, and oil pressure sender) - all appeared "dry". I pulled the starter - it appeared to be relatively wet.
This is an annoying leak!
Suggestions and solutions would be greatly appreciated.
