Hey guys I have a 532 with an A box and have some fluid leaking between engine and gearbox. I checked fluid level in gearbox and it was slightly low so I pulled it off and put new orings on. One looked slightly pinched so I thought I had problem fixed, but I still have the leak. I was wondering now if the front crankshaft seal is leaking? Kinda hard to inspect that area. If anybody has any advise on my problem I would appreciate it.

Well Malcolm, it's nice to hear from somebody that has all the answers. You might want to brush up on your social skills and your spelling while your at it.
You might need to be reminded that this site is for aviation enthusiasts that have a common thread. We can all learn from each other. That's why we take the time to peruse this site. No one appreciates or learns from moronic comments like yours.
