The Vento Mountrack/Zongshen 200GY-2 engine is a close copy of the Yamaha TW200 engine. I know a lot of the TW200 bikes have developed oil leaks at the cylinder base gasket. If my memory serves me correctly, the oil leak usually occurs at the left front side of the cylinder. Rather than taking a chance of rebuilding the engine, only to get an oil leak, I would strongly recommend getting an OEM gasket.
They really don't cost that much. You can get a gasket set for the
entire engine from Taobao for only $8.06 USD.
