    The tailshaft is back in yeah?

    Probably the rear seal on the gearbox, tailshaft will be coming back out again to fix it!

    If the seal is new check that its actually comming from there or from the shifter housing.
    Also could be the tailshaft isnt circular.
    More than likely the seal though.
