I can see it. Odd place. Maybe Rob can chime in here.

that is strange, was that adjacent cylinder stud ever over-torqued?

Hi Rob, I've owned the Searey for 3 years, never touched the cylinders and there is no notes in the log book from the builder of any work on the cylinders.

Hi Terry,
That is an unusual crack. Lets apply for warranty, you have nothing to lose. (I see you are in Canada, contact me at Rotech Research)

Looks very similar to this one, but on the other half of the case. http://www.rotax-owner.com/en/rotax-forum/3-4-stroke-technical-questions/5174-912-uls-oil-leak/12177
