Sounds like it as there's not much else around there if my memory serves me right..

I don't know though if it's accessible from the outside.

Give it a right good clean up/degrease round that area, fire her up and have a look. You should see where it's coming out, especially if it's "spraying out" like you say onto the side stand.

It is no excessive oil from lubing the chain?

I think iv fixed it.On the starter case there's a large screw head took it out no O ring + timing screw no O ring .
