Hello, I was looking to fix an oil leak coming from behind the flywheel. As I started disassembly I noticed some play at the flywheel, from the crank. Now that I have everything apart there's obvious slop where the crank comes thru the case, and I don't see a bushing in the case. Isn't there supposed to be a bushing there?
Thanks.

On a 40 year old 3 horsepower engine, I am sure there is crankshaft play…
