    Hey, currently having this same problem on my auto v6, just made a post on it. Did you ever find the leak or any other helpful tips on working on this tcase? I have not resorted to replacing seals yet as i just discovered the mess and it does not look to be coming from the output seals but I'm not opposed to doing those to prevent future leak.
