New unidentified fluid leak

Evening all,

I knew the wife's FL2 had a crank seal leak so we are planning on taking the box out this summer and fitting a new clutch and flywheel whilst it's out (2011 with 54k on the clock), but this weekend it appeared to sprout an new leak 🙁

This one is a little odd in that the fluid leak is a bronze colour and appears to be coming from somewhere between the gearbox and transfer box.

Has anyone experienced anything similar?

Cheers

Bronze oil is gear oil not engine oil so now you need to find if it’s the box or transfer box. FL2 MY10 TD4 GS traded in at 2 years
