I did a little digging through parts breakdowns and checked a couple bolts. I found the bolt circled below to be nothing short of stripped. Any ideas how I could fix this? It seems like the only place it could be leaking from; there is no oil coming from higher up on the cylinder so I seriously doubt it's from the head gasket. Any suggestions how to fix this guys?

Pull the engine, remove the front cover, heli-coil the stripped bolt hole. Put it back together.

That's what I was leaning towards. Yet another engine I have to pull now I've got one on the bench getting a new PTO side crank seal, one waiting to be pulled to replace a flywheel side crank seal, my fathers Wheel Horse is waiting to be put back together, and now this one! I think I need to catch up before I take on any more projects

I'm not complaining! For $50 I did very good I believe, I knew what I was getting into. But just like many here, the projects keep piling up quicker than I can get them done!

"A man needs to know his limits" LMAO I've stopped adding projects until I finish the one's I already have. Oh yeah and I'm retired.

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.
