Savage has a leak at the front of the motor under the exhaust hole, where the little nut torques the head bolt from under the cylinder. I even tried a copper washer. It persists. Engine runs fine, so I ain't going to replace the head gasket.
Yesterday, I noticed my YZF600 had a puddle under it, with drips coming from a rear corner oil pan bolt. Oil pan gasket is gone by that bolt. Tightening helped a little, but not much.
Rode the YZF to work today, and it looked like Exxon Valdez in our parking lot -- and I manage the environmental compliance department!
Did I catch hell from the Harley guys...
Reaped what I've been sowing.

I had the plug leak too, and fixed it already. This one's different.
