Lower Unit leaking oil...

[dabull22]

Hey guys,
I just got the 1979 Clinton 7.5 HP repainted and running and I noticed oil leaking from the back of the column. It is a air cooled head and water cooled exhaust. The oil is coming out of where the water sprays from. Any suggestions?

It's burned oil from the fuel mix. Normal.

Ditto...you just have to keep it wiped up now and again.
