 I cover my bike every morning in oil just to make sure
Mine is leaking from roughly the same spot. Changed the shift shaft seal thing it was that.... but i was wrong. When i changed sprockets i saw it was deeper and didnt bother, it wasnt bad enough yet. Lemme know what u find in there. Best of luck to you, i cant stand chasing leaks |

you need a sprocket and chain set anyway so its not much extra effort to replace the seal.
with a leak like that it would be worth checking the output shaft bearing for wear. my guess is the front sprocket is going to be prety grim judging by the wear on the rear one.
