 Seems that the air breather on my Eldo is contributing to the oil leak
inside the bell housing. I found oil coating both internal pipes in the
bell housing which lead to the air breather; one is the oil return line
and the other is the vent from the crankcase. The two rubber hoses that
connect these two metal pipes to the air breather are relatively new
(about 3 years old) and the clamps are tight.

Any suggestions to just how oil is leaking out of them?
Neither pipe is sealed where it exits the bellousing. Perhaps oil mist
is blowing up out of the holes around the pipes from the clutch/flywheel
cavity. Is there any oil at the weep hole at the bottom of the
transmission/motor joint?
