it looks like new oil, smells different though. the leak is more towards the passenger side i think it might be from the tranny. what does manual tranny fluid look like and smell like.

smells somewhat like coffee mixed with ***... looks red well at least the stock honda stuff does. and if you see your flywheel that means that your tranny isnt bolted up all the way or what?
