Well it's certainly wrong for one of my (three) chainsaws, mine had a
little cam driven pump. Admittedly mine are electric so running off
the throttle isn't very likely! :-)

Mine has been sitting on a sheet of plastic for quite a while,
and no signs of leakage, and the reservoir is usually at least
half full.

Maybe some part of the housing isn't tight.
