I would suspect that is a Valve Cover gasket leaking.
No, oil doesn't come out of the starter, either your distributor plug is leaking or you are leaking oil out of your front valve cover.
No, the oil is more than likely from a leaking rear main seal or from the valve cover which may appear to be leaking at the starter. The starter uses no oil so it cannot leak oil.

Well, oil leaking onto the starter is a common cause of it going bad. Have the starter tested, if possible, then replace if bad. You'll also want to correct the oil leak, usually valve covers leaking.
NO. You either have a rear main oil seal leaking or the back of the intake leaking oil and even could be a valve cover gasket leaking. But I would say the rear main is leaking and when the engine is running the flywheel slings oil onto the starter.
Valve cover gaskets?
you have an oil leak which is leaking down into your starter causing it to not operate. fix your oil leak clean out the oil from the starter, put the starter back on and everything will be everything
I don't know what causes more polution but leaking oil makes more damage to the enviroment.
if starter is oil soaked. check oil sensor under dist on top oil filter housing. starter replacement required repair leak lift plastic cap on oil sensor while engine running if leaking you will see right away. warning oil my be hot use caution.
1969 VW Beetles do not, nor should they need, starter gaskets. If it's leaking around the starter, it's because one of the two seals back there is leaking. You must first figure out what oil is leaking out. Crawl under the car and pick up some of the oil on one of your fingers. Then get out of there, open the engine cover, pull the dipstick and wipe it on another one of your fingers. If the same oil is on both fingers, the engine's main seal is leaking. If they're different, the transmission seal is leaking. Pray it's the transmission seal if you don't have an impact wrench because changing the engine seal can't be done without one.
Is te oil leaking from the turbo into the exhaust, or is it that the oil is leaking from the exhayst into the supercharger? I have a 2004 Jetta that is leaking oil from the exhaust port into the supercharger. I think that the culprit is either a bad valve guide, or exhaust valve oil seal. Write me back and let me know what you find.
