Well being that a Nissan 2 stroke dosnt have an oil reservoir for the engine, I will presume you are talking about either the gearcase or you have a dark oil coming out near the prop housing.

I am thinking gearcase seals? can you post up a pic of what you got going on?

If you hit bottom you may have bent the prop shaft witch causes the seal behind the prop to leak. Even if only bent .001" and new seals will only go out untill you fix the shaft. Take it to a marine shop and have them look at the prop shaft could save a lot of wasted time and mony
