Default gearbox problem help please..:(

Hi guys
Iv got a 51 plate bugeye and gearbox fluid is coming out of the bottom of the bell housing.. could this be a seal inside? if you top it up with a litre of fluid within 30mins there is a puddle a few inch's round on the floor..
Any thought's help would be great the box should be out tomorrow as its in the garage, if it needs another box out of what car am i best getting it from..

Regards

Could it be the input shaft seal? If so what am I looking at to get this done? Or is there anywhere else it could leak from inside the bell housing

Could be the crankshaft seal or input shaft seal. Check what colour the oil is that's leaking out make.

It's clear and smells just like gear fluid.. How much would it be roughly to get the seal done

There was a small pin hole just below the input shaft where the casing joins together
