JD 70 governor oil leak

Got a 1954 JD 70 that recently had the fan shaft and such assembly out to get the power steering pump rebuilt. In trying to use the tractor the other day (one of the first few days used after the work done), oil is squirting out from the governor. The location on the governor is where the throttle linkage goes into the governor. We noticed this by the oil pressure gauge showing no pressure, which it always has showed lower pressure but we aren't sure how accurate the gauge is. Anyways, wondering how this oil is getting here, and what the fix is? Also could it be related to us doing that prior work?
 
Dont believe so, I think we found the problem....The gas tank has emptied into the enigne. Luckily we didn't run it long like this! Hopefully that will fix things

Thanks
