what is that resulting from,,btw oil leaked through a crack in my tranny and was making alot of grinding noise i welded the hole now oil leaks between the engine and tranny

 

usually the leaking inbetween the engine and tranny is a sign to replace the rear main seal. But I don't think that's what it is in your case. My car was dropping about a quart of oil every 3,000 mi and I noticed a leak between the tranny and engine. I changed my tranny oil and the correct amount was in there. Eventually the clutch died and I had the rear main seal replaced as recomended by my mechanic now my engine oil doesn't go anywhere.

 

oh itssn't engine oil it's gear oil

 

Could be the input shaft seal. A leak there would end result in oil at the engine/tranny interface.

 

is that on the tranny side or engine side i'm assuming it's the tranny cuz of the grinding gears

 

does anybody know how much that seal is
