So recently I have noticed that this black oily substance has been leaking down my seat tube and dripping on to the ground. Im pretty sure its my carb leaking gas but I want to make sure its not something serious. Where would the oily substance be coming from if it was a major problem.
seat tube mount
^that is a pic of where my motor mounts to my seat tube and it seems like the substance is starting there.

^there is a side view and you can see where the substance is coming from.
it doesnt seem to be coming from any seams on the motor... just right there. I think the gas is dripping from the carb and it is just slowly leaking its way through. but what could it be mixing with to become so black???
Im just worried something is terribly wrong . can anyone quell my fears?
