I have a 1986 3.0 mercruiser I have had problems with the starter lately I have noticed (before starter problem) that I have a small oil leak into my bildge it appears to be coming from the starter, or around it. It's not much of a leak but an oil leak nonetheless. It was not there before could this be related to the starter? I cant really see under the engine but it seem to build up on the starter and drip from there.

My guess would be it's from the valve cover (rocker) or the lifter covers.
