My quad has developed an oil leak and i'm not sure where it's coming from. It is a really small amount of oil, and I have to run the bike for about 30-45 minutes for it to even start leaking. It seems to be coming from where the wire comes out of the stator cover. Has anyone ever had a problem with the seal on that wire leaking? My other guess is that it could be the lower head gasket, but I kind of doubt this because it is a really small amount of oil that is leaking, and the quad is running fine. It also takes a really long time for the oil to even start leaking. I did just finish a rebuild, and I torqued all of the bolts in sequence and to spec. If anyone has any ideas or could shine some light on this issue that would be great
