sprocket cover oil leak
#8
so finally attacked this...


took cover off gave it all a wash out, the right hand side bolt was covered in oil when i took it out and a little oil dripped out the bolt hole so yep...


upon looking the reason its actually coming out is....


the sprocket cover bolt guide we will call it had 2 notches cut out of it, not sure if thats how theyre made (someone confirm?) and the bolt looked like its been caught on something and flattened the thread on 2 parts of it which appear to line up with these 2 big notches :S maybe something happened and damaged them both?


i wrapped it in a metric fuckton of ptfe tape and bolted it back together, and as of yet ive only had maybe 2-3 drops of oil which ill guess are whats left inside the casing/side of engine.
