83 JD 500C backhoe.
I put a new starter on a few months ago. Now when running, it leaks frothy oil in a steady stream where the starter is mated to the engine housing. Is there supposed to be a gasket there? I don't remember one on the old starter which was the original from '83. Seems like the 3 bolts that hold it on place a torqued pretty tight.
