Default Hey Montauk

I've got oil leaking from between the prop and the lower unit. Opened up the screw on the bottom of the lower unit and there is that dreaded milky white oil. Question is where could the oil be leaking from? And the oit that is leaking is amber color. By the way it is a Merc 60 2 stoke

You got a seal leaking in the lower unit. Could be the prop shaft seals,drive shaft seals,or water pump housing seals. I can fix it on the side if you want,im not at the prop shop anymore. Send me a pm if your interested.

Whenever you are ready...you would have to leave it with me so I can take the lower unit apart to see what parts will be needed.

If I can get the parts in town that should not be a problem. Is it a small foot or big foot? Serial number would help too.
