Those are symptoms of a blown clutch-side seal.

I think on your model it can be changed without splitting the engine, but someone will have to confirm that part.

Negative Johansen (name that movie). You'll need not only to split the case but pull the crank as well.. Then you can fit a new clutch side seal... Do the flyside as well.

Then pull the crank back in (put it in the fridge or freezer for a while 1st) replace anything else you may want to like clutch cover o-ring etc, case gaskets etc.. And button it back up.

I knew I should have quit while I was ahead. Thanks Vader, actually I just wanted someone else to break the rest of the bad news.
