Should a t5 leak like this (out of car)?
I bought a t5 yesturday, I had it in my garage in a wheel barrow with the whatever you call the end with the shifter on it angled down. Today I go out there and its full of tranny fluid, it looks like it came from around the shifter. Should I be concered about anything, or will it be alright once its in the car and upright?
Couple more questions.
Would an 88 be a world class?
What kind of fluid should I put in there
Big torx bolt on side is the filler plug right?
Thanks.

Thanks.
I ran it though some thing I found, and it says "don't read casting numbers". I guess there is another number somewhere? This one is up twords the top right below the shifter next to the little circle with the year in it.
Year of manufacture is 87 though, so I guess no WC, must have been swapped in.

Found that already, number is rusted off
Not that it matters, I know its an 87 so it cannot be WC.

Good advice though, thanks.
