Folks,
I am due an MOT this week and needed to tighten up the handbrake. While under the truck I saw my bellhousing was soaked in oil, droplets hanging off it as well.
The bashplate is also drenched.
The oil appears to be engine oil, very dark / black.
When I was under there in December, there was definitely nothing there. I had the bash plate off to to open try an open the lower sump. Had I not noticed it on the bellhousing, I would have noticed it while handling the bashplate.
About a month ago, I had it serviced by Mr T. Is there anyway they could have done something odd? Overfill? I checked the oil and it is spot on the max mark.
The truck only has 70k on it, not exactly old...

Cheers,
