Leaking Roadmax 6 Speed Transmission

Hi. I am new to Choppers but have been around motorcycles my entire life. I just picked up a custom built chopper and noticed that the transmission is leaking from the bottom. The drain hex bolt was a loose so i tightened it up a bit but still leaking. From the picture i uploaded, does it look like it leaking from the gasket? Does anyone have experience with this transmission? Sorry if this is a newbie question but i do appreciate the help

Ocassionally those studs do leak. It just depends on if the machining process went all the way through the case. Some are blind holes so they will not leak. On those that are leaking I'd pull the stud and apply a layer of silicone sealant to stop it from leaking through the threads.

Really need to clean that up,run it a bit,then check it to better isolate the source.Could be stud or gasket-hard to tell with oil spread everywhere.
