Powermaster 821 leaking

[Fred Bear]

Hi all, new to the site. After sitting all winter up here in michigan I notice a big pool of hydrolic oil pooled under my tractor. It痴 coming out of a cover plate on the bellhousing. The weep hole pin is not in place anymore which I didn稚 know was a thing until reasearching this issue. I took the plate off and it痴 drainging the oil water and sludge. Just to double check this area should be completely dry correct? Do I have a bad shaft seal/bearing leaking into this area from the trans?

Hi Fred,
So everyone is clear, does your 821 have rear lift arms. The pic you posted looks like where the hydraulic lines come out of the center casting and head to the pump through a manifold.
Does this tractor have a hydraulic pump?

The CNH website lists the 821 as having hydraulics, so I am confused.

The leak is around where the trans meets the engine.

No rear lift arms but it does have hydraulics. It has fel and backhoe. The pic below is when I bought her about 4 years ago now.

Fred,
Does your tractor have an hyd. pump up front driven by the crankshaft? Can you post a pic of your pump and a pic of the right hand side of the motor?

Yes has a pump up front that’s what the fel works off of. The frame of the fel is the holder of the fluid though. I attached pics of both sides of the engine.
