An guy gave me a 445 that he did not want to mess with so he went and bought a new saw. It runs great but leaks oil far more than any normal little oil leak I have seen in other saws. Is this common for this saw? Where should I start looking to fix the issue?
 
Clean it up then follow the oil.
It's probably from the oil pump or oil line,or maybe a cracked tank
