300 Utility Oil Leak

Posted by dick on September 28, 2000 at 18:50:47 from (199.239.12.58):

I've oil running out of the two upper belly-mount bolt holes on the left side of the clutch housing (the lower one is capped off for some reason), and appear to be loosing the oil from the engine. It's coming out fast enough that the tractor is not useful at this point.

Questions:
- Is this a clear case of rear main seal failure?
- Can it be fixed without pulling the engine/splitting the tractor?
- Are these bolt holes supposed to go through into the interior of the clutch housing, or is this an indication of a crack in the housing, or some such?

Any information appreciated. Tractor has both TA and IPTO options (ser. # 6966 SJ).

Thanks,
Dick
