Bravo 3 Gear Lube Leak (2007 Chaparral Sunesta 254 350 Mag)

Pulled boat out of storage this weekend and noticed a small puddle of gear lube on floor forward of drive nose cone (no visible leak on drive). I serviced and filled last fall during winterization. I also store with the drive down. In addition, last spring I removed and reinstalled the drive and replaced all seals where drive mounts to housing. Does anyone have a part breakdown that shows the tubing/fittings that goes from reservoir thru transom to drive or what section of manual I can find information in? I suspect my leak may be there. @WIngnut

I was able to find the schematic, looks like there is hose between the 90 degree fitting coming out of gimbal housing running to the straight fitting on the bell housing. I just hope it is the hose and not the fitting. Found a video online that shows the hose can be replaced without removing the drive/bell housing with some ingenuity.
