After each flight I notice a streak of oil running down the front right cowl latch. When I open the cowl, I don't see an obvious source, but I can see where oil is misting the front right of the inside of the cowling. I also see a little oil at the front of the oil sump and around the starter and generator. Oil is not gushing out and it is not collecting at the lower cowl. Could that be a crankshaft seal?
The plane just came out of a long annual where the carb, oil cooler, engine mount, air filter and most of the hoses were replaced, but most of the replaced parts are behind or below where the oil is collecting. For what it is worth, compression and engine oil analysis were both excellent.
