Not much oil at all, but it only take a tiny amount to make a bit of a mess when it's spread everywhere.
I'm thinking of making a catch can to capture any blown out oil for the next track day.
I did notice a deafening silence about anyone with smaller pulleys on the SC having this issue on a track day. I guess all those are just on the road where you don't get this issue if you just doing a quick little "squirt" on public roads.
