Default Engine leaking fuel

Hi guys,

Ive got a GXII and its done about 7L. At around 3-4L I noticed a lot of fuel/oil around the back of the flywheel all around the crankcase so I changed the front bearing and it solved the problem up until a few days ago at around 7L where the same thing started happening.

I changed the front bearing again but this time it didnt work, from the very next tank fuel/oil was again all around the back of the flywheel.

Any ideas??

Im thinking about changing all the o-ring i.e. the one on the carby itself and inside the case.

I also damaged the o-ring that the screw goes into that holds the carby collets together (the orange ones) by accidentally pushing it too far, but I cant find the part number in the parts list.

Could it be anything else?

Do I need to change the rear bearing? When changing the front bearing, the rear didnt feel 100%, there was a very slight grinding/scratching feel but not too bad.

Thanks.
