Leak under 03 XKR

dsd, when the engine is cool, reach under the throttle body and feel each hose, or use
a mirror to see if that is the problem. I had one that needed a better clamp on it. Use needle nose to slip the old spring clap down the hose and add a screw type after opening it up to install. There is also a connection on the passenger side near the block.
Hope it's not the valley hoses.
Use a pressure tester or get the auto parts store to check it.

Not to mean to add to your list, but I believe that the big inspection hole in the bell housing is normally blocked with a rubber plug. I can't see any good coming from leaving this open to the elements.
And it's probably me missing something, but is your steering rack held with zip ties?

Its ok though cause it was done by a
Dude, that is some crazy engineering there.
At least one side has the correct clamp and bushing.
All fun aside, my car has that zip tie too. His 2nd clamp and bushing is not in the view.

I wouldn't discount ATF yet as the fluid in the trans is yellow, if original (ZF Gearbox / Transmission Oil. Alternative or equivalent)
To help eliminate it, is the fluid oily or watery?
