I think it's the crank seal and it's a gearbox off job to sort it Dry

Yup, looks like it's leaking from the crank seal. Mine weeps slightly from there too, not enough to affect the oil level. I'll sort it as and when the gearbox needs to come off. Yes

Me neither. It will have to wait until the summer when I can afford to have the car off the road for a while. Hopefully I won't puncture the radiator again Laugh

Looks the same as my bottem end mate.
I had a gearbox oil leak contributing to the mess over the winter; leaky driveshaft seal sorted mine out. And I was leaking coolant from where I had done away with the interior matrix and pipework and replaced it with a 'U' bend.

Although the crank seal seems the most likly tbh, and im sure mine is weeping slightly tbh.

Smell it; gearbox oil stinks, engine oil isnt too bad, and coolant I couldnt smell at all!
