gearbox leak
#7
The input shaft seal rarely fails. It is normally one of the driveshaft seals. Either way, that will not be engine oil there. It looks as if the oil has run down from the driveshaft to the lowest point, where your pen is. The route it has taken could have been through the join making it appear to have leaked from there.

Give it a good clean and have a watch Smile
