provided you have not got any cracks in the sump plate and the sump plate bolts are tight
sounds like you have a worn out pto seal ( please check pto for bend or wobble ) as this could have caused this from hitting something solid
it it is bent have it straightened before proceeding
remove the blade carrier and hub and key - clean up the pto with emery tape , drain oil , use a straight shaft flat blade screwdriver and lever the seal out of position
obtain a new seal place some thin plastic sheet ( from say a thin walled plastic container )
cut into a size that you can wrap around pto , then slide the seal over it up to the opening ,
the drive the seal into the housing squarely until the seal is flush with the housing ( on a non stepped pto ) 7/8 shaft
but on a stepped pto 25 mm drive it in further until its about 3 mm below the housing
