Well, I'm not doing too badly then. It's definately leaking from the front,
but not down the sides. Of course from there it blows back ... perhaps. It
doesn't appear to be a big leak. The gearbox/OD does appear to be leaking
from the low points. If it's the drain plugs, the best cure is ...?
Thanks!
