engine1.jpgI have 1983 Mariner 9.9 motor. Took it out yesterday and it ran great. Then taking the boat out and while it was sitting on the trailer I noticed milky oil coming out of that hole mark above. Can I get recommendation on this. Thank you
 
You have water in your lower end, know you have to determine where it is coming from. Sorry for the pun but I am in the same boat with the used boat I just purchased. Could kick myself for not taking along a screw driver to check that before buying. I have changed mine, but before that I replaced all three screws, the others did not have seals. Know I still have the issue so will have to replace all seals. Best to you.
 
That may well be normal.---And the oil that is mixed with the gas may be leaking out.------Gearcases can be pressure tested to find leaks if there are any !!
