Default Leaky Blower? Help!

I did notice a few days ago some oil on the bolt with the red circle around it. Wiped it away. Tonight, I noticed a bit more. When I blow on the bolt, more red oil comes out....any thoughts? it seems tight. This blower has less than 1,000 miles on it.

Also, where do I check the blower oil level? Novi 1500.

Mine is doing the same thing. I was told they probably just over filled it a little from the factory. I just keep wiping it off every time I open my hood. Might want to call Doug at ecs and see what he has to say. Let me know what's up if you do. My blower only has about 500-600 miles on it.
