Couple of thoughts on this , just in general ...
Does the auto box have a breather valve , is it clear The gearboxes that re occur and leak again could it be a fluid boil condition that creates gas build up pressure which escapes at the easy point .. ie gearbox out put seal . I also understand that it could be a design flaw . Years ago we had a old v6 Granada that when the owner towed his caravan up some big hill the box would leak from the torque converter seal , this was replaced but it leaked again whenever the caravan was on tow . We fitted an air fed gearbox oil cooler and it never leaked again after that , this was in the days when the only auto trans oil was the dextron

The rear seal leaks diff oil rather than gearbox - only holds about 1 litre but makes a hell of a mess when it is leaking even fairly lightly. Don't think there's any breather on it?

Yes can see it on a picture now , it has a prop that comes forward to drive front diff , I wonder if they suffer the same as land rovers where auto oil gets past the case seals and fills the diff part part with auto oil , it turns the ep oil pink and often spews out of the breather tube
