Small leak top of transmission bell housing, need help identifying
Notice a slight sweating around a specific cable around the top of my driver side transmission bell housing. It is located further back. I’m hoping that fitting is just loose, but its extremely tight and cant even get a wrench in there to tighten. Can someone help Identify this hose/cable?

I have changed my own clutch, rear main seal, accumulator, slave cylinder, trans mounts, turbos, oil lines, intercoolers, fuel pressure regular, engine mounts, turbo hoses, exhaust, coil overs, and much more. I was trying to help you narrow the possibilities.
It appears to be oil on the electrical connection to trans. The main culprit in that area is the rear main seal as far as oil goes. It could be Pentosin from the clutch but it's usually a larger leak as it's pressurized when activating it.

“This is a easy one.. Pentosin is leaking from the coupling or actual slave connection. It has a distinct smell. Same as your power steering fluid.”
I do believe its possible a clutch line. Just trying to figure out how I ll be able go sort it out seeing I cant even get some tools in there to tighten the line.

agree. not rms. i had a porsche factory tech remove and re-install the trans once after a leak was discovered. it was top of the housing, but also a decade ago. cannot recall the source. but no way thats the rms.
slave or accumulator or clutch line
