2002 EV Cal Special rear drive leak

I have a transmission oil leak causing me the redazzzz.

Seems to be coming out of the frame junction, right side, at the swing arm pivot and flowing onto the exhaust pipe/muffler junction. The oil is NOT coming from a split trans breather tube. I removed the drive axle rubber boot, spun it around to check for slits or breaks...it was ok...reinstalled the clamps but that didn't seem to help.

It acts like the tranny oil is just blowing out through the breather pipe under more than normal pressure into the frame and out the frame vent hole.

I don't drive hard, 60-65, normal cruise and I have to top up the tranny after 100-200 miles.

Any help/thoughts/solutions or beginning points to start?

Thanks
 
Sounds like a rear trans output seal to me. Once it leaks, it bleeds down the swing arm, and often out the drip hole in the swing arm, and if excessive all the way down to the rear drive causing an over-full situation there.
