Catepillar Leaking at Rear

I have 1996 CAT D3C the leaks out of the rear plugs on both sides of at the rear when I move it. Is is a plug that I just above the sprocket and it looks like a zurch fitting is that for grease, but it isn't. I squirt the trans oil? when I move the dozer left or right. I can't seem to figure out how to fix it, there isn't now way I could wrench it out or allen key it. Seems rusted out. I have included pictures.

Not always, but in many cases new users have to have 5 or more posts on record before the site lets them post pictures (or links), due to site spam filters. Another option is to go down to the Site Comments Forum and ask YT Support for permission to post prior to that. You can try going down to the Test Forum and making several posts there to get your post count up, trying to attach your pictures to each post. That may work after you make several posts. Then make your post here again. It may not work immediately after you get past the 5 posts, if not, you might try logging out and back in at that point. There is a size limit as well, I think it is a total of 7mb per post (be it one picture or the total of several). Some pictures (often taken with phones), are too large and have to be reduced before they will post.
 
The oil can be leaking somewhere else and running to that point, lift out the seat and examine all the plumbing going on to the valve on top of the clutch housing, I can't remember if there were bleed nipples on the cylinder they would look like a large grease zerk, av a good look to see where the oil is coming from it's the cheapest thing to do with a Cat.
