My last couple runs i been seeing this on my carburator/isolator block , where can tbis oil be coming from if not the gaskets? Maybe a warped manifold? Is here something on the carburator that can leak oil?20180324_161227.webp 20180324_161227(0).webp
 
Can't really tell from the pic, but the gasket itself might be worn. It's more of a gas leak than oil. As the gas evaporates it leaves behind the 2 stroke oil.
 
Took everything out and inspected, noticed that the 2 long bolts that hold everything together were not tight seems like they were starting to back out, cleaned everything out and inspected the gaskets as they looked ok, car is new only a little over a gallon through the motor. Put some loctite and put it all together. Also inspected the plastic isolator block which seemed to be ok. Im waiting on my killswitch to come in ill run it and see if the leak stops. Did also notice under the carb kver the center diff there was a wet spot from the blowback pressure of the engine....hope this solves the problem if not ill be looking into getting an aluminum isolator block from ddm and new gaskets
