Stator Cover Leak

[Busa Boi 09]

How do I fix my Stator Cover Leak?

I installed my new Stator Cover Friday night. I have about 50ish miles on it since I installed it. I just went outside to look at it and there is oil spray on the fairing aft of the Stator Cover. I am going to tear back aprt tomorrow, because I forgot to put thread lock on the Stator bolts. What should I look at to make sure it isn't still leaking after I put it back together?

Before you take it off, see if any of the bolts had backed out... depending on the type of cover you installed it may need to be tq checked after a few miles...

I think I found the culprit (sp) It is a clear cover and there are about 16 allen head screws on the outside of the cover (not the actual mounting screws) I. There is a little bit of oil build up on the bottom, outside of the cover. I am about to get some allen wrenches from my friendly airframe mechanics and go check them to see if they are loose. Will update when I get back.

The leak is gone but i have to pull it back off this weekend to put the thread lock on the stator screws. The good news is that it isn't leaking though. I will make a new thread and add the pics.
