Prado 150 Transfer case

Hey
i noticed a slight leak yesterday and gave it a clean with degreaser and hoped all problems were gone however done a 40 km drive and checked it this morning and the leak is still present, i have searched through the forum and can not find anyone else with a leak from this position. Any ideas?

I've checked the Toyota manual and it does not appear there is any sort of gasket or silicone used

might be just the picture but is that a crack running through the joining plate, bottom side of the leak in the first picture....

I haven't had a very close look to see if it is but i will later today, if it is what needs replacing

Looks like a casting mark, could be a crack though it would mean oil is running uphill.Its also awfully clean if its a crack as one would expect oil to be coming through it.

Looks like it might be missing some sealant in that area.

Thats what i thought i couldn't see any around the area, i have spoken to Toyota about ordering a gasket set/ overhaul for the transfer and i think i might remove from the car replace all the seals and replace but with a bit of sealant and hopefully witth any luck that should fix her up.
