My guess is that is is unburnt two-stroke oil.

try putting some anti-seeze around the bolt to keep the oil from flowing out, but not to much cause you don't want it in your cylinder, also, are you sure it isn't coming out of the spark plug hole? i had a leaf blower do that once and i just took out the plug, cleaned it up and put it back in and tightened it a little more and no more leak

good luck

im 99% sure it aint from the plug cuase it was doin it before, and then i put a new plug in and its doin it still, i am goin to tighten the head bolts a lil and try some of that anti seize, maybe i didnt tighten them good when i had it apart last time

well i wrenched down a lil more on the head bolts, and i noticed that the plug looked a lil loose, so i tightned it a whole turn, and then i cleaned the whole engin off, but i havednt had time to ride so ill tell ya when i do

all 2 strokes do that. it may be the gasket... is the oil coming out between the flange and the cylinder, or the exhuast pipe and the flange? throw some hi-temp sealer on that mofo, itll cure it right up
