This is great stuff. I’m doing some spring maintenance and these are all good places to check while I’m under there.

You got lucky, no leaks.
Mine is leaking. It has not been licensed since 2016.
It looks like a rear main. but before i put it away for it's 1st year I checked the rocker cover. They were very loose. I snugg them up. See if it quits leaking. Fingers crossed
