Hi Guys,

Today I changed the oil on my trusty old 30WRTL's drive unit and found a problem.

When refilling, oil came from the bottom of this slot, not the level plug at the right. There was residual silicone over the slot so I believe something is missing here and someone has previously tried to seal it. There is a 3/8"UNC thread inside the round slotted part that probably retains a sealing cover?

Does anyone have a pic or parts diagram to show what is missing? I can make a part to fix this if I know what is supposed to be there.

Many thanks for any assistance.
Ben.
