Here are a few picts., Looks like oil comming out of the points cover. Dont know yet where this is comming from, but its gonna get fixed before anymore use. Its not clear if the leak is comming from: oil breather vent, gov.shaft is a little wet w/ oil, but not alot to get the motor dirty, oil pan gasket? You can see the new oil down on the oil pan leg. Any ideas? Going to clean and let run to expose the leak.

johncub7172 more than likely your point push rod is worn and oil is seeping past the rod. Less than a $10 fix.

Because I know for sure oil is leaking from the points cover and nothing else. I was not aware, however, about the points push rod. I'am going to search and research this topic. Thanks cubs-n-bxrs!

The original Push Rods were made of aluminum. It was not uncommon for this aluminum to wear. The new replacement Push Rods are all steel.

Just for kicks, I took out a points push pin from the other k161 thats needs to be rebuit, and it looked good. So I swapped pins. I tryed to get a good pict. of the bad pin on the left and the one from the old motor. I could see how the leaking pin was "peaned" over and how the new one looked much better. I let the tractor run about 30min. and so far, no leaks! Thanks R.Bedell. Taken me a minute, the donation is comming! Thanks for the helpfull site:

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
