No, it wouldn=92t. If that=92s engine oil, I=92d suspect it leaked from th=
e rear main seal, and a likely culprit is pressure in the crankcase. Would=
be worth checking your engine=92s ventilation system. If it=92s transmiss=
ion fluid, then its either the front main seal of the tranny, or the gasket=
under the cover at the front of the layshaft.
Either way, you don=92t want a pool of oil in the bell housing for the clut=
ch to pick up.

Subject: [TR] TR4 oil leak
I can see oil is coming out here. Would it make any sense to put a gasket =
in there? Plug that hole? Is that bad or simply pointless?
