This may be a stupid question, but I am new to boats so forgive me. I have a Bayliner Capri 2050 with a 5.7 and a AlphaOne (Gen2). When greasing the outer zerk on the AlphaOne today I noticed some water dripping out from somewhere around the top of the transom. I could not see where it is coming from exactly. What would cause this? The bellows don't seem to be leaking into the bilge area and everything seems to be working fine. Should I just add grease until the water stops dripping? Any info is appreciated.

Ayuh,... The water was in the grease cavity,+ was displaced by the grease,...
Perfectly Normal...
