Leaking where??

I noticed traces of oil (of some sort) tracking along the front edge of the belt and pulleys. The steering box had residue on it as well. I cleaned it up, ran it for 15 minutes and let it sit for a week. Rechecked and found oil pooling up on the inside of the crank pulley. Never seen that before. Nothing forward of the engine has oil on it. I cant smell it due to my cold but it looks and feels like engine oil.

How can it be? Could it somehow be coming from the Fluiddampner?

Re: Leaking where??

it's possible oil is making it's way along the crank keyway between the crank and balancer, if you didnt put a bit of rtv on the keyway before installing the damper

i've never put rtv there and haven't had a problem, but maybe the fluidamper has a little more clearance than stock stuff
