A 90-120 gear oil would do the job. Much of it depends on the age of the seals. If it seeps, keep it topped off and monitor the level every few weeks.

please update us. When I come across a situation like that I loosen the fuel tank cap and see it that changes anything.

Thank you . I'm not sure what the service technician used before for lubricating the chain case . I popped open the stopper thing and it the lubricant inside seemed like greese consistency .
Can i just add the 90-120 oil to it . or should i drain the old lubricant and fill it with the 90-120 oil . Thank you for responding
