Re: PRoblem....Oil leak

I was just out checking my car for the same problem, i've been noticing little spots on the driveway after doing my clutch... so I did a full oil change with new filter and sandwich plate seals and washers and still little spots it looks like its coming from the join between the gearbox and the engine... well thats where it appears to be dripping to so i've done a little research and someone talked about a crank shaft seal which sounded expensive and I didn't seem to have enough oil dripping for that so Im still stumped. but yea any help would be awesome
