    I have been seeing a little bit of fuser oil on top of the fuser tank on the OB.
    There is a little play with the OB hard fuser roller bearing, the contact arc setting is perfect. Anyone have any idea?

    I get stuff dripping on my tank too. I just keep wiping it off.
    I wouldn't worry unless it is pooling. It isn't is it?

    You should also check the fuser oil return hose to make sure the fitting is sealing properly. The hose gets brittle and will crack at the fitting. I replaced ours last month.
