Subject:Hi list. 90 syncro bad leak stuck in parking lot

Hi new 2.2 engine in syncro.   First 300 miles had main seal leak. Got that fixed under warranty.     On 3000 mile road trip 680 miles into it have been having a leak.  Thought it was oil at first but oil was just changed at 800 miles of new Engine now have 1180 on new engine.   Fluid was dark and dirty.   Now am thinking it might have been Manuel transmission fluid (gearbox fluid).  I know that holds 5 quarts. Sure I have seen about two quarts in puddles here and there.  

Oil dip stick is in between the marks.  Don't know what it was at after oil change.  

Grounded van in parkin lot for the night so can access better in morning 

Is there a way to check Manuel transmission fluid level?   

Any help would be great.  Have some pics don't know how to post to list.  

In wendover nv.  So not to much out here via volks folks.  

Have tools with me :) 

Thanks 
Bob
