I purchased a se116 upper May 30th, 2006. It has leaked drive oil ever since. The paint is chipping in several spots as well. I had my mechanic look at it and it appears that the casting around the oil passage way from the upper is defective. It is recessed and the o ring will not contain the oil. On my lower you can see where the oil has ran past the o-ring and into the lower. I sent the unit back to Clearwater on 07/24/06. Almost two months of headaches trying to find the problem. Summers are too short in upstate New york for this.
