A little help please, I have an Alpha one Gen two, the boats a1993 but the drive is newer not sure of the age. When I put the drive up oil leaks from the Dribble valve area behind the bell housing. I suspect the fitting or hose is cracked. The thing is there is no remote oil reservoir inside the boat I have looked everywhere. I guess my question is if they didn't install one would they plug the hole on the inside of the transom plate and could I just pull that silly Dribble valve and problem solved? I have removed the outdrive and pressure tested it, and that's fine. I would appreciate any help or comments, thanks Tom
