Vent was a small hole somewhere near top of where nose cone part 
attaches to the rest.  Jon told me he's heard of the bushing leaking 
that the trans shifting shaft goes through, but wehen I cleaned it up to 
check where; it stopped.  The wet location implies the vent hole, not 
right where the shift coupling attaches.
