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
