Abstract
An engine for an outboard motor is provided that can include a crankcase having a crankcase chamber, a cam chamber, and an oil pan disposed below the crankcase. The engine can also include a crank chamber oil-return passage through which lubricating oil can be returned from the crank chamber to the oil pan. Further, the engine can include a cam chamber oil-return passage through which lubricating oil can be returned from the cam chamber to the oil pan. Finally, the engine can also include a gas passage to provide communication between the crank chamber, the cam chamber, and the oil pan in order to allow passage of blow-by gas without substantial interference with the movement of the lubricating oil.
