    Does anyone know why my gearbox would be leaking from here?

    Failed gasket?

    Was a silly question really, half asleep at the time.
    What I wanted to ask was, if anyone who has had a leak from the same place, is there any easy fixes with taking the box apart?

    Got the same problem, its very slow and doesn't tend to drip. I've thought of no solution...

    No gasket fitted there!

    Maybe that's why it's leaking then?

    If i'm reading you correctly you're saying there should be a gasket between the engine and gearbox?to my knowledge no gasket was ever fitted as standard.

    That's the two halves of the gearbox casing where sealant is used, check that the bolts are still tight, they don't need much torque.
