Is it engine oil or gear (transmission) oil?

It could be a dried and cracked clutch nut O-ring instead of the main seal.

Or it could be gear oil from the transmission.

Which is the reason for the question in the prior post by SH.

Gear oil smells like sulfur (rotten eggs.)

Well I'm not near the bike now but I'm just asking
Possibilities. The rms was changed years ago but was never
Run on until now. So suspect the rms already but looking for
Other possibilities. It leaking from weep hole in trany.
