Need help with 2000 evinrude 115 ficht

I've got some oil seepage going on the right bottom butterfly. The other three are dry. Any ideals what could be causing this?

Sure, if everything else is running fine, it is normal. I have seen DIs (fichts by another name) with a lot of oil in the pan from dripping exactly where you see the seepage. They are dirty, messy engines, just another reason they are no longer made. The oil is built up from the engine not burning it efficiently and the nature of two strokes which pushes it out past the reeds (which are not perfect at sealing).

It's normal for that mtr. We used to have to put paper shop towels under the air box so the oil wouldn't drip down the sides of the mtr. Good design? HaHa.
