Looked at a few different ones, but under the hydraulics, J43000 CONTROL VALVE shows the valve and where it attaches to the front trans case.
The hydraulic kit that was installed to run the V-Blade functions may not have been installed correctly. It is possible the tandum pumps have a leak internally but then why would it seemingly only leak one way? If it were mine, I would start with the hydraulic kit and make sure it is setup correctly. Maybe add some oil to the tank and monitor it while you run a blade hydraulic function. Is any oil returning to the tank? It'll be interesting to find out what the culprit is.

The only problem with that theory is the tandem pump mounts onto the engine.
Fluid transfer would be the control valve or the HST assembly.
