Oil leak

(1/4) > >>

adriangsmith:
I have an oil leak from the bolt above the sprocket in the picture below. It coming up the bolt stem.  Did i miss something when rebuilding the engine?

Nurse Julie:
I have looked through all my old photos but, bloody typical, not 1 pic showing that area. But, I think it should be a blind hole, ie, goes nowhere, because a casing bolt goes in it. Has a too long bolt been put in there in the past and gone through too far maybe?

Nurse Julie:
Just looking at your pic again Adrian, what bolt hole are you referring to?. If its the one at the top, its an external fixing point so no oil will come out of there, am I looking at the wrong hole?

adriangsmith:
Hi Julie. Yes the bolt at the top. It goes through the casing you can see the bolt shaft going back into the casing in between the cast ribs. Quite a long bolt at 80mm or so.
