    Ya sure its that? Maybe just some brake fluid that got boiled over or something out of the resevoir and dripped/spilled on the snout? Just a thought.

    My JRSC was leaking oil from the nose pulley bearing but later was fixed by sending to JR. You might want to verfy by cleaning the nose pulley area, as well as the bottom of the blower. Then go for a test drive and recheck the result. If you see traces of oil around the nose pulley bearing again, then it's leaking. When I asked why it was leak, I was told it might have caused by the pulley came in contact with the strut tower during the SC installation or simply manufacturing defect when the bearing was installed. The bearing somehow was pushed in too far.
