I've had them on engines that haven't run in years begin to drip just from time, so I wouldn't worry about it. I think I remember asking Willy in one of his other posts if the timing arm was moving because it is a really common problem for this to happen. I think there is some coming out of teh engine I got from Bradford, and that engine doesn't hardly have any run time since he had just replaced that stuff.
Is there any solution to keep this from reoccurring?...
