1968 CT90 Oil Leak Question

[Hebee]

Hello everybody! This is my first post and I am a total noob to the CT90 world so please forgive me if this is a dumb question. I picked up this 1968 CT90 and noticed that there is a bit of leak coming from this bolt on the front of the engine. Is there a gasket that can be replaced to fix this leak? What is this part called?

Thank you very much for the help! I'm sure I'm going to have more questions soon. Looking forward to be apart of the group!

That's the valve tappet access cover. It has a O-ring seal. https://images.cmsnl.com/img/partsl...r-head-coverpointbase_bighu0075e2401_82e4.gif

Thank you so much! Going to order new gaskets now.

Good idea, it's best to buy the complete set rather than pay $5 for each O-ring

You might want to buy the cover itself too. Yours looks pretty rough, it might even be cracked or broken.

Just buy a full Vesrah gasket kit for around $28. You will be surprised how handy it is.
