There's a cam port that passes oil to the Automatic transmission. Without an automatic transmission the port is just a leaky hole that's covered with a flat piece of metal held in place with three bolts and a glob of RTV which will leak and be a pain to figure out. If your dealership is smart enough that to find it they will just scrape off the old RTV and apply a new glob then send you on your way (where it'll probably happen the day after your warranty is up).

Here's the easy fix (this should be done on every manual twin -leaking or not):

The plate is billet aluminum with a raised center that plugs the hole with a high temp O ring to end leaks forever.
