The odd spot of oil sounds like a result!! maybe the old filter was so blocked pressure was building up in the crankcase??? who knows, you will get some oil mist out of the breather which lubes the chain and the back of the bike if you only have the top chain guard. I have the full guard and after a while I get a few drops drip out of the drain hole in the bottom but the rear end of the bike stays clean!!
