Hello. I have a leak identified in the picture. It is not bad but I can’t seem to find the name of the shaft snd or seal. Also, do I need drop the trans to replace seal.?  Thank you 

 

2000 Porsche 986, manual, 5 speed. 2.7L

Welcome to RennTech :welcomeani:

 

Pretty sure that is a pressed in bronze bushing; if it is, the only way to repair it is to pull the gearbox and replace the entire tail housing as the bushing is pressed in from the inside.

Gotcha.  Is that the main input shaft ? 

No, that is one of the gear selector shafts.

Thank you. I pulled the trans couple times two years ago when I did my IMS, clutch and flywheel. At that time there was no leak and it really not much of a leak now but I want things to be right. In this case, I may just leave it. Thanks again!!
