Hi , hoping someone could shed some light ...I have a 2006 5hp Honda that has been stored in the correct upright position ( as if it was on a transom ) for over 3 years but there is a slow constant oil drip coming from the exhaust port ( located below the anti cavitation plate and above the prop ) does someone have any idea what might be causing this ? Thank you very much, Farbe

Has the motor been ran at all, or has it just started leaking for no reason?

Not to hijack the thread, but does it make a difference if the motor has been ran? Reason I ask, having a similar issue, although I think mine is a gear lube leak. I just created a post if you are curious.
