Default mtx leaking fluid

thought it was the half shaft seals so I replaced them and it is still leaking. It looks like it is coming from the clutch area. Is it possible to have the input shaft leak? I can not find any other place that is leaking. Anyone have any suggestions?

thnks

It is tranny fluid and it's coming from the bellhousing. Have you heard of that before? I just replaced the engine and it did not leak before I started.

Yea there is a shaft seal in there, if I remember correctly. It usually dont leak from the input shaft seal, from what I have seen. And how much does it leak? Chance you may have damaged housing.
