Oil leakage in that area can be coming from the rubber gromet with the 3 wires coming from the stator and the trigger wires for the ignitor. You can try cleaning it real well with brake cleaner and rtv'ing everything over. Or you will have to pull the left side cover to do a good job of sealing it. Don't pull the side cover off without a new gasket in hand and a exploded parts diagram of that side. There is a little washer that normaly falls out and you must put it back on the right shaft or the starter won't work. Be prepared for the stator magnet to pull things around also, it is very strong. Also that case is WET, meaning you will have to drain the oil first.
