Any guesses where the oil leak is coming from?
So, the 1864 I just got finished buttoning up has apparently developed an oil leak
 After I got done mowing a couple nights ago, I parked it in the garage. I checked the oil the next morning and noticed I had lost a bit. I started looking around and found some fresh oil since the motor has been dropped in. The only problem is, I can't figure out where it's coming from. Starting at the PTO side of the engine, you can see what looks like some fresh oil grabbing onto the grass clippings. If you look at the side, I circled where there was fresh oil before I wiped it up. You can also see in the 2nd pic where it dropped down onto the deck sub frame and then onto the deck. Then you can see by the flywheel where it is. Needless to say, I'm frustrated! Before I swapped the engine, I don't recall it leaking (the 2 times I mowed with it). I would like to think it's the PTO seal as that can be gotten to with the engine still in the machine, but could it be the flywheel side seal? I guess I'm looking for opinions and suggestions on how to trace it down. Thanks guys

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
