    I have not had any seepage up there but as you mentioned I know of some flange leaks, although mostly on the rear Diff or at the tailshaft for the transmission (5HP). Maybe use some Brake cleaner and clean it up real well and then drive it for a day and see where it starts from. Was the fluid level very low?

    I have not tried to check the level yet. As you know, there is no drain plug and just a fill plug for the front diff that looks not easy to get to without taking the wheel off and possibly some other items. I did clean the area up and will check it again.
