Oil can migrate out past that rubber grommet out past the o-ring on the starter shaft and leak out. Sealing that oil loss path can stop mysterious oil leaks. Be careful about getting RTV loose in the engine but apply liberally.

Yes, but when your grommet is completely soft and gooey, and cannot be reused, what do you use in its place?
