 Rebuild '66 engine with all new seals. When it warms up, the oil leaks
UP out of the choke wire hole on the right side (just forward of the
carb). I know the fan air pressure is pushing it out, but I've never
heard of or witnessed such a leak. Before I pull the shroud off to see
what is wrong, does anybody have experience with this type of oil leak??
The crankcase vent is the only thing I can think that has a possibility
to put oil on the inside of the right shroud.



Getting all the information is most of the solution.
