Yea there was just a little bit of water at the very bottom. Less than a tablespoon. The oil itself looked great. Thanks for all the replies! I know a mechanic would’ve just said “bring it in” lol. Also, had I actually checked the weather I should’ve waited another day to change it because it’s now in the 40’s in Toledo. Would’ve saved me getting my heat gun out to melt the tiny bit of ice at the bottom.

You should be good on the water/ice issue. Once you get enough water to where it can expand and push against that sides of a housing, that is a different story. If there was a bunch of water, it would be emulsified /very milky and it takes a long time for the water to separate from the oil. But you said the oil was clean and only a spoon full of water give or take. Check behind your prop for fishing line. This braided line is some very rough stuff on shafts and seals.
