    there's a drip of oil coming from bike after warm up very small only place I see it noticeable is on the bottom waterpump bolt but surely oil can not come from there and it's fresh oil

    Dunno mate are the bolts tight? What's going on with that blob of epoxy looking stuff? Doesn't look too clever that mate.

    Ok found the exact place we're the water pump goes into the engine it's like cylindrical it's weeping there so it has to be the waterpump gasjet

    Just clean it all up mate, dry off and run your bike till you can see where it's coming from. Looks like it's seeping out from a gasket or something
