oil leakage between engine and gearbox

[cliosportap]

i had rebulit my gearbox 2 mounts ago
and about a mount there is a little oil leakage between the engine and gearbox when i drive the car
i checked it and it seems to be motor oil. (no leakage when you dont drive)
can it be from the crank seal or somewhere else
did anybody have these kind of problems
please give me advice

yeh crank seal probably mate, if it was gearbox oil it would prob be input shaft seal

Is that a big fix?

if it is crank seal i have to take off the gearbox :dapprove::dapprove:
the seal is back of the flywheel

It could also be the sump,iv seen people take gearbox's & flywheels off to do the seal and it was the sump that was leaking.

i had changed the sump 7 months ago
we clean the sump and the oil isnt conming from there

Waas the sump easy to do? Mate at work told me its difficult and not to bother with it but all i can see is a few bolts holding it to the gearbox and block, Doesnt look particularly hard, just tight

the sump is much more easier than taking off the gearbox
before the sump you have to take the cover under the engine
then it has approx 15 small bolts
