Does this sound legit, I have oil around 2 hoses on side of engine. It's a small amount running down when engine is tilted out of water. Never enough to drip just enough to see it. Engine is still under warranty but Dealership and Mercury say it a normal mist and not to worry.
Any one here of this problem.

All motors even new ones have a small amount of blow by. As motor gets older it can increase. Looks to be poor design but motor is fine
