 im afraid it appears as though i have a leak into the clutch area
im guessing either engine or transmission oil dont know which
once i am in there are both those seals easy to change ? do most take
the engine out or the book mentions you can push it foreward in the
frame and get in there too

It's not that hard, but does take some time. I remove the battery and
holder, remove the bolts from the engine and tranny, push it all forward.
Take the tranny loose and remove it. You can then carefully pry the old one
out (I use a right angle pick) and carefully put the new one in. I'd go
ahead and replace both engine and tranny at the same time as long as you've
got it apart.
