Looking at lower unit after motor has been sitting for a few days there appears to be fuel coming out near lower unit . It does not appear to be oil and I don't see any inside cowling or running down motor . Any ideas ? Only article I see says that it's normal .

Was the motor tilted up causing fuel to leak out of carbs?....maybe inspect carefully under cowling/around carbs/fuel lines for hose or gasket leaks?....

fuel should not be coming out of the motor when it is not running.
maybe you are talking about unburned fuel leaking out of the exhust after running.
If all of the cylinders are not firing properly and burning the fuel in it you may end up with that coming out the exhaust but it is dark from all of the carbon in the exhaust tubes
