Hyster 225E Wet Clutch leak

I got hold of a Hyster 225E forklift serial number B7S 1519 L which needs a fair bit of work late 60s i think with isuzu 6cyl diesel engine bit of a restoration - challenge. I do not no anything about wet clutches but figured out some of the plumbing. The bellhousing has a leak at either end of the shaft which i assume operates the clutch that goes straight through bellhousing, It is connected to a actuator of some sort then to clutch pedal. I have pulled out the filter right hand side looking forward was blocked and full of crap as well as water in system from sitting in a paddock for years i am guessing. My question is does the bellhousing hold oil above the shaft which i am guessing if it does gearbox needs to come out and replace seals or could it be overfilling due to blocked "stuffed " filter and water issues. Read in another thread about the filter and mine was no good so i thought this will be a good place to ask in a new thread. Thanks Andrew

Fact of the week
The origin of "love" as the score zero in tennis is debated, but two main theories prevail. One suggests it's derived from the French word "l'oeuf" (egg) which resembles the shape of the number zero. The other proposes it's related to the Dutch word "lof" meaning "honour" as players might be playing for honour when scoreless.
