what colour is the oil dripping down the sump?
I though my sump gasket was leaking at one point but the oil was clean which meant it had to be either diesel or gear box/ird fluid......never got to the bottom of it, its' always done it, at some point i'll check the driveshaft seal but the amount it loses is very minimal and when checking gearbox and ird levels at services they never really need to be topped up.
I did have to change my high pressure fuel pump as this was leaking in cold weather from the top piston cap, i still have the slight oil drip after this.
