Leaking 307 update

Hi all,

I posted last week about a leaky 307. Now this morning I have had a look and it seems to be coming from where the driveshaft meets gearbox and a bit on a part of the clutch

Here are some pics:
This one is of the clutch bit, there seems to be a bit of oil around the circled bit but i dont know if this is natural.

This one is where the driveshaft meets the gearbox and the oil, as you can see, seems to be coming from the circled part.

What do you think seems to be the problem and the fix if possible?

Thanks a lot

PS The oil on the clutch part seems to be totaly separate to the driveshaft

Damaged driveshaft oil seal maybe?

Clutch part which looks like the Slave clutch cylinder btw is easy and cheap enough to sort, get a repair kit which will be a new piston and boot.

Driveshaft is more of a worry, that looks like a bad seal also and you will need to split the balljoint, get the shaft out and change the seal.

Fortunatly the seal should be cheap though.
