Gearbox oil is usually heavier / thicker . If it's not the gasket or the sump itself leaking you would have to identify type of oil so we can suggest what would cause engine or g/box oil leak . I.e Could be gearbox oil seal or engine crankshaft seal etc .Cant remember where the engine oil pressure switch is on that car , but that can cause oil leak and is a simple replacement .
