    115 mercury 4 stroke leaks oil when leg removed.

    Hello Folks.
    Is it normal for a 115 4stroke serial #18898793 to leak engine oil if the power head is tilted up with the lower leg removed for water pump servicing? When the leg was reinstalled on the engine, oil no longer leaks out when tilted up.

    Thank You
