Except oil runs out of the gearbox input shaft if you park them nose downhill, or overfill the gearbox. My engine has rust on it because it does not leak oil! Cheers. 5380

Bit of info from my Workshop Manual for early gearbox /Transfer oil levels. read bottom paragraph, sorry it is upside down. GBModification 1.jpg transferoillevel.jpg I found that my 1950 80" had never been done, after doing them greatly reduced oil leaks.

Good pick up! I'd say that it never went back to the dealer, or they missed it!
