Opitmax oil leak
Guys i have a 2015 250 opti leaking oil from somewhere while in use. It is not leaking from the cap and not leaking from the oil pump and not leaking from any of the lines on the side of the motor, It appears to be coming out of the lower intake. Any ideas ? It's enough oil to come out at the back of the motor lower cowl.

My bet is from the oil pump. Put your finger under the pump. There will probably be a drop of oil there. If it is it is the o ring sealing the front half of the pump.

if it is the intake manifold gasket, why is there oil coming out of it ? Shouldnt all the oil be going in the motor ? I could see maybe a small amount but i wouldnt call this a small amount. it's enough to make it to the lower unit
