David D:

First see if you can't isolate exactly where it's leaking. I had same problem. Determined the leak to be from the front cover, the one the horn wire enters. Removed the four bolts, let remaining oil drain out, cleaned all surfaces well, applied a small amount of RTV along matching faces, and re-installed. After refilling with SAE 80 everything is fine.
