Oil residue coming from inside the prop while flushing

[Playinhooke]

My first Johnson is a 2001 Johnson 200HP it is new to me and I am trying to find if this is normal, while flushing the motor after doing some fishing, idling while drifting for a while, and 3 miles of no wake on my way back to the dock there is some sign of oil coming out of the exhaust, it is a 2 stroke with a new fuel pump.

could just be unburnt fuel/oil coming out the exhaust. smell it. if it smells of 2-stroke oil and gas, its unburnt fuel. if it smells of gear oil, then pressure test your lower.

You put oil in the fuel or oil injection system. Guess where that oil goes? Some of it burns and the rest goes out the exhaust. If that were not so, your engine would not be being lubricated

Thank you both for your reply, the motor is carbureted the oil mixes in the VRO fuel pump, it is a new fuel pump and the motor runs good, I do notice that it smokes after idling for a while like it may get more oil while it idles, it does not look like it is gear oil its more like a fuel and oil mix it just gives the water around it a little color. Thanks again
