Default Gearbox leak

Hi all , went to jap show today after pulling car out of garage notice a little puddle of oil checked the level and was half full of gearbox oil.

Went to the show came home checked again and just above low.

I have been underneath and looks to be loosing the fluid near the front of the gearbox

Both front drive shafts are dry the propshaft is dry

500 miles ago had new clutch and flywheel fitted never leaked before

Can anyone recommend me a gear box oil to top this up with so I can safely get my car to a garage to sort this issue
