Title pretty much says it all. Just looking for a jump off point before I start taking things apart! We have what seems to be an oil leak from the top side of the engine paired with some white smoke. My initial thought was the obvious "head gasket" but being my first V-Twin I didn't realize that these aren't actually on the top of the engine rather the sides/front. From what i've looked up it doesn't appear to be leaking from the locations where these 2 gaskets are. I've read about a "sump gasket" on some Kohler engines, but this seems to be at the bottom side of the engine, not the top.
I believe this is a model CV740S. I have cleaned it up several times and ran it and it definitely looks like the oil is coming from under the plastic shroud on top rather than where the heads are located. Are there any gaskets or anything else on the topside that could be leaking?
Thanks in advance for pointing me in the right direction!!
