evinrude 225 water leak

[hotshot123]

when running on the muffs i see alot of water coming from alot of places but this one, im sure it shouldnt be leaking here. is this common? can i jsy loosen the 4 bolts and get some silicon in there or is there a gasket that i should replace? or just leave it. this is not the motor but i found this pic and maked where mine is leaking. (spraying)

My Ocean pro does the same thing, I have plenty peeing out of the upper hole, and the motor runs nice and cool, so I didnt think anything of it. I believe the last guy to pull the lower off must have wrinkled the gasket or something. Everybody I have asked says its not a big deal, fix it this winter instead of mid season.
