Hi John H.,
Your gearbox shouldn't ooze. I clean both mating surfaces with a scotch pad and lacquer thinner. Then I apply a thin coat of 5910 (Permatex "The Right Stuff") to both surfaces, but not so much to cause globs of it to squish out the sides. Never had one leak yet. (Knock on wood)

Yea, I know it shouldn't leak, ooze, drip, or seep, but it has since new.
My first two never leaked, but this one does. Hopefully the new sealers
will work better. I hate leaks. However, it is more cosmetic that an
operational problem. Never have to add oil between changes. Not a
something critical or catestrophic.
I clean up the flanges too, so did Ronnie Smith. Make sure there is
absolutely no oil residue on them before sealer and replacing.
If The Right Stuff doesn't work, I betcha the Yamabond or Hondabond will.
We have put two and four stroke cases together with it and never had a
problem. Back in the old days before Yamabond and Hondabond, we used 3M
weather strip adhesive, commonly referred to as Gorilla Snot, because of its
color and tenacity. Bringing back some old memories now.
