On my 480 ce I have had an oil leak on my port engine since purchasing.It seems to be the rear main seal as it’s leaking from the bell housing and is dark. I lose maybe a pint in a season so I put a hose on it and let it drain into a milk jug. Now I have started to notice a minor leak coming from where my starter bolts on. Not sure if this is from the leak into the bell housing or if from somewhere else. Not sure how oil would get to that spot any other way. I have heard of starters burning out due to oil. The starter was replaced once on that engine and was wondering if it could be susceptible to that again due to the oil. First picture is of starter area and second is of oil leak looking up to where starter is bolted on.Bill
