If its the crank seal, then yeah box off,clutch off, flywheel off.

Also make sure its not the gearbox end of the sump leaking.

You should be able to tell if its gearbox oil or engine oil, depending when engine oil was last changed it will be alot darker than the gearbox oil

Sure its not the gearbox leaking? Seeing as it splits in two, so has a habit of leaking at the join.
