I found several drops of what looked like oil on the dome floor and they were directly under the dome slot transmission so I used the lift to get a look at it, there was some oil leakage so I tightened down a few loose mount bolts and wiped the trans clean. When I got back down I found the real source of the leak, there was a bad hose crimp connection at the hose-to-pipe connection point just above the PICS enclosure, coolant was slowly dripping down the pipes and onto the MKIII housing and then to the floor. The hose was probably disturbed a few days ago during an adjustment to it and the other spar cables. I tightened the crimp and cleaned up the mess. We'll probably see more drips on the floor for a few days as the excess leaked coolant drains out from the pipes behind the PICS, I left paper towels at the two critical places where the leak was and where the coolant dripped off the plumbing, that might be enough to contain the slight drainage.
