I'll just have to keep an eye out for escaping oil. It's something extra to keep an eye on, along with the clutch master cylinder, inlet manifold, VIS motors etc, all of which are vying for my attention at the moment
If you do have leaky seals at driveshaft then you will start seeing fresh seepage now.
Hope you cleaned the old oil off so you can check well at next inspection.
Get some plastic tubing and a small funnel and route it from top of engine is best way to top up gearbox
