George,
From reading your posts it seems that you have noticed the oil level on the trans. dipstick dropping and found fresh oil on the right side. I have a few suggestions; Leaks are easiest to pinpoint after cleaning the area from where the leak is suspected to originate. you should check the tranny. oil after the car has been sitting (not running), level, for 15-30 minutes. If you are checking the dipstick right after turning the engine off you'll get a false low reading. C900 5 speeds leak from; the clutch shaft seal, the clutch shaft cover o'ring, cover plate gaskets (there are 4 gaskets; front cover, rear cover and 2 covers on the right side), speedometer drive o'ring, axle seals, Companion flange housing o'rings and the bolts that hold the comp. flange housings to the main case which need to be coated with thread sealant or they will leak (has anyone removed and replaced any of theose bolts?). The clutch shaft seal and cover o'ring will not leak when the car is parked (not running) as they are above the oil level. Good luck.
