Last summer my AW-70 developed a fairly substantial leak. I'd already replaced my tailshaft bushing/seal and checked the cooling lines - no go - so I was stumped! Read here that the pan bolts can back off - voila! problem fixed!!

Not sure if this helps as you said the leak is coming from the front. Easy fix, though. Tighten in a cross-pattern and DON'T overtorque!

Oh yeah, just thought of one more thing. Someone here recently had a leak somewhere in the dipstick tube (near front - BTW) area. Do a search for "Scorch", I believe it was him.


G'luck,
