Oil leaking from Gas Vent

[Sea Ray 290]

We just got the boat back from the Dealer after putting on a remaned sterndrive and changing the oil (they said we hit something). After four days of running we are noticed a small amount of oil leaking from the gas vent, when we come in from the day and only when we come off of plain. The boat is not over heating and fluids are all good.The oil is yellow in color.

Any help on this? Before we had the sterndrive replaced, they changed the gimbil bearing, and the bellows. Also replaced the shift cable with out asking first.

Thanks

Can't belive that I still have no replys after a month. But wanted to let everyone know that the leak has stopped.. Just figured that after sitting out of the water for four weeks in the hot sun that the ethanol gunk was leaking out. Everything seem to be find and she is running great! Please let me know if any one else has had this proplem.

Thanks

....and I thought you were talking about the gas tank vent but all the talk about the outdrive got me confused.

so what vent were you talking about?

This was weird one. A couple of us tried to help via PMs, but we didn't really have a good idea. Glad you figured it out.
