B.E., I agree with you 100%.
Since I use my 4020 powershift on a snowblower and melting snow gets everywhere, I drilled a drain hole in the flywheel housing AND the lowest point of the starter "belly" and any water that sneaks in can get OUT.
Many years ago, in the consumer "big satellite dish era" I was a sort of "field rep for one of the major companies.
The industry was having trouble with water getting into the lowest part of the "power arm", the electric "jackscrew" that moved the dish from satellite to satellite.
That "lowest point" was the motor and directional feedback sensor area, and every possible seal and boot that was affordable at the consumer level was tried by various manufacturers, with little lasting success and lots of warranty issues and angry owners after the warranty period.
Then, someone got the idea to simply drill a drain hole at the lowest point of the motor unit which nearly 100% ended the issue.
Turned out it was more successful to let a little water pass on through than it was to try to seal ALL water out!
