International 574 hydraulic leak

My International 574 is leaking hydraulic fluid around what I think is the back end of the drive train. Pictures attached. Is there an easy way to fix this without tearing into the tractor? Thanks in advance.

You have pictured the pto shafts, after being cleaned up,so I presume it is leaking from around one or both shafts? If so,should be just the gasket and seal inside the bearing retainer.Mark.
 
I should have been more descriptive! The leak is coming from the round disc that has one side cut off to the right of the lower PTO unit. You can see a stream of hydraulic fluid running down from it if you zoom in a little.
 
My bad -I see the leak now.I have had the lower 1000 pto shaft out for clutch pack replacement,but not the shaft.I would believe it is an idler shaft and that it could be removed from the rear.And I would guess it is held in place with a snap ring,but you would have to remove the pto shaft to access it. Mark.
 
I looked at the parts site-that is the pto idler shaft.There is an o ring seal behind/on it. I did not see any snap ring or retainer in the picture.It may come out with a slide hammer threaded into the rear of the shaft(light press fit). The gear would probably fall to the side if you pull the shaft,but you may get lucky and be able to guide it back thru,but I don't know for sure.Look at parts picture 07-42 in the parts site.Mark.
 
Thanks Mark! Any chance I could try to press some gasket sealer in there and try that before pulling it apart? I'm not overly mechanically included...
