Wipe the drain plug let it sit and check again later to see if thats the spot. I have a small leak from the base gasket betwwen the crankcase and bottom of clylinder.

I have the same leak, but mine is a big one!! My base gasket is gone, good news is it's only $88 for parts, but the bad news is $450 labor!!!

I manage to acually stop the leak, I clean it very well and smeared a high temp silicon at the base/cylinder connection and its held up for 2 seasons now.
