A gear assembly (300;400), comprising: a first gear (308;404) that rotates about a first axis and includes a first gear face with a plurality of first gear teeth (210-212); a second gear that rotates about a second axis and includes a second gear face with a plurality of second gear teeth (218-220), where the first axis is not parallel with the second axis and the first and second teeth (210-212,218-220) rotatably engage as the first gear (308;404) rotates about the first axis and the second gear rotates about the second axis ; and a shroud (304;402) coaxially located over the plurality of first teeth (210-212), where the shroud (304;402) includes a base surface and a circumferential sidewall (312;406) extending from the base surface and a first cutout (314;412) in the sidewall (312;406) for the first gear teeth (210-212) and the second gear teeth (218-220) to rotatably engage and a second cutout in the sidewall (312;406), characterized in that said second cutout further comprises an oil scraper (302; 414) that includes a radially inward extending interference surface in face-to-face proximity with at least a portion of the plurality of first gear teeth (210-212), wherein the interference surface removes oil entrained adjacent to the plurality of first gear teeth (210-212) as the first gear (308;404) rotates, where the interface surface causes a disruption to air pressure adjacent to the rotating first plurality of teeth (210-212) passing in close face-to-face proximity to the interference surface to disrupt forces entraining oil with respect to the first plurality of teeth (210-212) to reduce the amount of entrained oil. a first gear (308;404) that rotates about a first axis and includes a first gear face with a plurality of first gear teeth (210-212); a second gear that rotates about a second axis and includes a second gear face with a plurality of second gear teeth (218-220), where the first axis is not parallel with the second axis and the first and second teeth (210-212,218-220) rotatably engage as the first gear (308;404) rotates about the first axis and the second gear rotates about the second axis ; and a shroud (304;402) coaxially located over the plurality of first teeth (210-212), where the shroud (304;402) includes a base surface and a circumferential sidewall (312;406) extending from the base surface and a first cutout (314;412) in the sidewall (312;406) for the first gear teeth (210-212) and the second gear teeth (218-220) to rotatably engage and a second cutout in the sidewall (312;406), characterized in that said second cutout further comprises an oil scraper (302; 414) that includes a radially inward extending interference surface in face-to-face proximity with at least a portion of the plurality of first gear teeth (210-212), wherein the interference surface removes oil entrained adjacent to the plurality of first gear teeth (210-212) as the first gear (308;404) rotates, where the interface surface causes a disruption to air pressure adjacent to the rotating first plurality of teeth (210-212) passing in close face-to-face proximity to the interference surface to disrupt forces entraining oil with respect to the first plurality of teeth (210-212) to reduce the amount of entrained oil. <EOS>
