I have the exact same issue...ISX 2200 Vanguard 28HP EFI. Just purchased last week, mowed about 2 hours, parked it, and then noticed the leak the next day. It appears to be at the front of the engine, but I cannot find where it's leaking.
Did you have to drain the oil before removing the cap? Any tips or tricks from your experience?
