where is the Oil leak, there is only Oil in the gearcase, and if it is leaking there it can be a drama.

it is coming from the little nut that conects the propeller to the engine ..

Well connects the propeller to the prop shaft anyway, which goes into the gearbox, which has (or should have) oil in it.
There is a seal around the shaft that keeps the oil in, these can get damaged by fishing line getting wrapped around the prop.
Take the propeller off wipe out in there with a rag, you might be able to spot the problem yourself.

might even just be line still tangled around the shaft and preventing the seal from doing it's job, have a quick look yourself first.
