I have been trying to understand an oil leak that I have on my WD-9. There is oil leaking from the two tapped holes directly on the bottom of the flywheel clutch housing. When I first began the project, both of these tapped holes were plugged with gunk so I cleaned them up and a small amount of oil began to run out of them (less than a quart). I then plugged both of them with a bolt. I continued to notice oil dripping oil from the area near the bracket for the rear ball pivot for the front axles (area directly beneath the flywheel). I then removed these bolt and there is still a few drips of oil coming from these holes now being they are the lowest point on that particular casting.
I don’t believe there should be oil in this area being it is the flywheel and clutch housing, but I am not sure how far rearward on the tractor this cavity extends and if there is seal out , possibly the engine rear main?
I can’t find anything in the parts book showing if these two holes should be plugged or open for draining? It seems as if something should be in there being they are tapped.
