oil leak in new e-tec

[barhopr]

'06 60hp e-tec
Less than 5 hrs on engine, noticed when I came home this afternoon that 2 cycle oil had leaked out of the resevoir, down the inside of the engine, out between the plastic couling and the metal of the lower unit on the prop side of the engine. Followed the trail up to the oil tank and it is comeing from what appears to be the three tubes leading out of the tank to the injectors. Not from the tubes themselves but the "cap" they are attached to. I did refill the tank the afternoon before and was not run again. thinking I could have overfilled and the heat from the day presurized the tank causeing the leak. Is this something that a dealer should look at?

It is probley leaking from the crimp where the oil lines and sender sits. I have found this very common. I normally tell everyone not to fill there oil tank all the way to the top.

no leak today, after running a little yesterday afternoon and buring a little off. Maybe it's nothing.
