Gear Change Indicator Relay oil leak?

[ehowellgs700]

I seem to have a very small amount of oil seeping out of my Gear Change Indicator Relay where it screws onto the engine beneath the sprocket cover - is this possible? I just want to check and see if there is any oil that could come out of this area or if it is more likely to be leaking from above in one of the other seals in that area.
Thanks!

Yes, this is possible.

Cool, thanks, I just hadn't had time to tear into my spare engine to see how this mechanism works.

There is a O-ring between the engine case and the relay

Thanks guys. This is a cool mechanism. I took it off of my spare engine to check it out and just ordered a new o-ring. I just keep being more and more amazed by this bike the more I work on it.
