Default uh oh... hydro leak

Haven't found it yet.. but I pulled the deck this week and replaced the blades.. that was an adventure... I don't have an angle grinder.. I had to grind down the last remaining home made "baffle" so the blades would fit properly... pulled her out of the garage, mowed... and this evening (after the fun with the fuel).. I noticed some hydro fluid on the floor... about a silver dollars worth... I'm hoping it's just a gasket or something.. but what should I be watching out for... dear lord let the hydro NOT be going out... when I pulled the plug today during the fuel fun.. I noted that after about 45 minutes of run time that the plug was already coated in carbon.. which I figure means I'm likely for a powerplant rebuild in the not to awful distant future... sure don't want a hydro replacement... thanks in advance...
