The hole in the bottom of your bell housing will leak fluid (engine
oil or trans fluid depending if either your crank seal (flywheel side)
or input trans seal has gone south.
Regarding the clutch pushrod seal, Moto International (I think,
maybe was MG Classics) makes an aftermarket fix consisting of a series
of 3 or 5 o-rings that fit snugly between the shaft and the housing it
fits in. Easy to do, but you gotta pull the swinger to do it.
