hello my 2008 tldi 50 is leaking water near the upper pivot arm.The powerhead has been off this year and rebuilt, could it possibly be the base gasket leaking? i can post a video tomorrow. or could it be anything else?

when you had the power head off, did you replace the base gasket?

yes all gaskets were replaced when rebuilt, it is leaking a lot worse then the picture shows so much that its barely peeing. There is no water inside the lower cowling it is only coming from were the picture shows. Is the base gasket the only possibility, I would hate to pull the engine then wait for another gasket only to find out that was not the problem. Thanks in advance.

Does that model have water plugs somewhere ? Have had issues with several other HP models, but those were draining water inside pan, right under cylinder head onto pan.
