Let there be light! Thanks @yodaTEQ, this should have been one of my very first mods.

We are meeting somewhere along Beach Boulevard in Revere at 11am. Feel free to swing by. Won't be there for long.

Bummer. Working till noon, then have to head back up to NH. Maybe I can catch you next time you are around!
 
Anyone have an idea what could be causing this leak?

By the color, I would say Power Steering....
Spray everything with Spray Nine, Purple Power, engine degreaser, or brake clean, and get it good and clean so that you can try to track the source.
 
Looks like more than one leak. Crank seal shows signs and prob oil pump o-ring too. Do them all.
 
Got some seat heater elements and since my seat bottom is all ripped I didn't want to dismantle the seat leather and put the elements underneath. I used a yoga mat for padding, 3M adhesive spray to hold it to the leather, put the pads on, put a nice Cabela's seat cover on it, wired it up and it works awesome! Way more comfortable and heats up almost instantly.

Love this and would like to see how those Cabela seat covers look when you're done.
