Newbee - gear oil leak from gearbox - need help

[yossivarman]

I found a leak/sweat from the gearbox
there is a pointing arrow in the picture - in red
I think it is a gear brether
what can I do to prevent it ???


and I pic that I took of the place
you can see the reverse unit - with wires



What can I do???
or I will have to live with it and worry to check the level from time to time

I looked it yesterday - and I managed to pull out the black rubber over there
my question is:
could I just use some silicone to fill out this hole ????

I think the breather is near the gearstick on the extension housing. Try silicon around the plug you took out so it will stick in there, as silicon will just fall into the gearbox if there is no plug of some sort.

thanks

I think you are right because I saw some old silicone on this plug
