Hello,

Came home today after a ride with my Aristo Craft Torpedo / Mark 78 and noticed, when lifting the motor, that a little bit of oil/ grease? dripped out from a very tiny "hole" about 2 inches from the flush plug. I like to know if this is normal or if that tiny hole should not be there at all .

I checked my Mark 75 that is on a stand in my office and noticed it has the same tiny hole but not the flush plug!

Who can advise?

Thanks,
Taco.

Those are drain holes to prevent casting damage in cold climates.
