It can leak from any number of locations. Tail shaft housing, main housing, speedo gear, etc. there are no gaskets on these. They are sealed with silicone rtv. So if it is leaking from somewhere, odds are its easy to fix. I have mine on my workbench as we speak. Check the o-ring on the speedo gear too.

Got a flashlight and reasonable eyesight? Wipe it down. Go for a drive. Look at it.
