they don't have a sump gasket, it's a liquid gasket used on them

it may also be leaking from the o-ring on the side the diff goes into or the other side of the transfer shaft

and it's not as easy as "whipping off the sump" either as there is a fair amount of mechanicals to deal with, 5 hours in a garage with ramps and stuff it took when i did mine last time around

I know its atleast a 6hour job, so "whipping the sump off" is just a phrase mate ,

it came from the bolt heads but today ive had nothing not a drop
checked oil levels all ok not low , so im puzzled

Did you drop a bit of oil when topping up ?

rare for a sump to leak really like above post maybe top up or such?
