Gearbox (MA) has been dripping oil for ages. I would be surprised if there
is any left in there. 
I would like to replace all the seals (drive shaft etc) but servicebox is
a bit ambigious regarding this.
Could someone show me on the relevant page which parts and codes
I have to order from my Pug dealer?
Mech will carry out the work but any other advise/thoughts generaly regarding this?
Thanks.

Nope.
But it was definately gear oil. A very slow and small leak over time.
'Will take a better look as soon as I can.

Exactly. I have a feeling it might be from there.

Wait. I thought you mean #4 on here.
That wouldn't need box off unless I'm missing something?

Are you sure about that because the clutch plate etc is above there.
I wouldn't think gear oil would be found in there.
There seems to be no gasket there on the drawings.
Maybe someone can confirm.

Yep.
Will do. I just want to make a proper job of it because this has been going on for ages. Small, very slow leak but serious at this stage.
Cheers for the help and I'll keep the thread posted.
