T5 bellhousing is covered in fluid as well as both sides of the exhaust and both cats (hot cats cause the tranny fluid to smoke like crazy). Checked the tranny fluid level and all is well so it doesn't appear to be a seal (plus the whole thing is covered in fluid). Is there a relief valve on the top ? ... I really need a hoist ! Engine is putting out over 400 ftlbs so I expect it to break soon anyway, even though some people say they are running 600 hp on their t5s.
