The dealer phoned me today and said they did a pressure test and vacuum test
and no leak at all, the drive and prop shaft are perfectly true, they
checked the 2 seals on the drain/fill plugs and both looked fine. And like I
said I am 100% sure both were very tight when I removed them. They said the
only way warrantee would replace internals was if a seal was leaking. The
prop was beat up and a bit loose not only fore and aft but side to side as
well so Bill like you said the prop vibration must have been enough to let
water in the prop shaft seal. Anyway I guess all I can do is keep using it
and keep a constant check on the oil level (which I should have been doing)
and hope the internals were not too corroded, pitted etc..

I'd be real interested in the outcome, what caused the leak, what the fix
was, etc.
