I’m trying to get my boat back running and today it finally cranked but after I turned it off I saw oil coming out of the exhaust exit at the back.

Do you have power steering? If so, check the pump reservoir

Was it fogged before layup? Also do you mean out the prop hub or idle relife ports on transom housing? If prop hub could be gear oil from drive
