Oil In Distributor

[Bill Loubiere <loubiere@earthlink.net>]

Does anyone have any thoughts on how oil gets into the distributor?  After
running about 25 miles or so I am getting drops of clean yellow oil
deposited on the plate that holds the points.  Is this caused by a worn
bushing?  Other?

How does one check the bushing?  No play or very little play on the shaft
that the rotor is mounted on?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
