I pulled the cowling today after an hour flight to do an oil change and while waiting on the oil to drain, I inspected the FWF. This is what I found:
I have a picture taken 5 days ago, when I had the top cowling off working on my baffling and the pushrod tube was straight.
So this happened in the past 5 days were I have put 5 flights and 5.5 hours on the engine. I haven't had any engine issues that would make me suspect this and no telling how long I would have flown on it without pulling the cowling for an oil change.
What could have caused this? What can I expect? Where should I start? Is this an easy fix? Any help is greatly appreciated.
