Had seal go behind the point it ran down the wire and showed where your lookingTook the Shovel out for a jaunt around the New Forest yesterday as sun was out for once!
Pesky oil leak is annoying me though, initially thought was the usual tranny seal leak but if anything seems to be collecting on the frame rails under the oil pump and nose cone area on the right side but cant see where it's coming from.

Check the tensioner bearing, they run very fast and can seize causing heat on the belt and subsiquent breakage.Put a new set of points in the shovel and set the timing. Took it for a short spin and it was running the best it has since I got it. When I got back the idle was a bit high so I turned it down until it cut out. Went to start it again and the starter was just spinning.
Then I discovered this.
