Weak Crank Case Bolts?

Well, I think he dropped the bike. Got a leak. Sealed it and probably thought it was fine. Honestly, it wasn’t leaking enough for me to catch it on the inspection. It also never leaked enough parked to even get more than a drop. So I think it just went unnoticed. He was upfront about the drop before I saw it. Only noticed it after a few hundred miles.
