Engine oil or gearbox oil?

Could be gearbox input seal?

That's your timing inspection hole. You can buy a plug for it or you can just bung it up with something.

Mine leaks a little from here, and out the hole underneath - after wading when off reading, I'm not 100% cetain but I think it means your crankseal has gone or your gearbox input seal, can you tell what sort of oil it is?
