Soo I've given my gearbox (app box is it?? 5spd on a 2.1 Dj engine) a wire brushing too re primer and paint and behind the front gearbox mount the corrosion was quite bad as you can see from the pic above! It's got a tiny hole seeping out fluid!

What's your best advice liquid metal the hole or something of the sort or try too get a whole back case for it??

Cheers for any help

my advice is not to try and fix the symptom from outside without knowing what is going on inside, the corrosion is extensive and the end case is structural so imho end case off, you will be able to better clean the case and effect a more reliable repair if that proves to be a feasible option
