Looks like it's leaking.
Most gear boxes run the oil about 1/3 way up from the bottom. If it's overfull it will expand and blow out of the vent plug. If there is no vent it will build pressure until it finds a way out, even if it means blowing a seal!
Some gear boxes don't come with a vent for shipping purposes. The vented plug may have come with it and was never installed. If you add a vent, be sure it is positioned so not to let in rainwater.
I would clean it up, check the oil level (correct if necessary), check the vent, look for blown seals. Then run it a short time and check for leaks.
