Oil dripping from lower uint

[tugboattugger]

I have a 250 4-stroke, I notice at the bottom of the skeg there is always a drop of oil. I've changed the fluid and the gasket around the drain plug. Is this normal or what else should I look at. Thanks

Not normal.If its leaking around plug then its either not tight enough,been over tightened and threads are stripping,or maybe a piece of metal or trash of some kind not letting it seal properly.

abnormal, could be your prop shaft seal is leaking, pull the prop look in there

My 150 2-stroke does that around the top (Fill level) screw on hot days.
