Hi sorry for the lame-mens terms, but I'm still new to tractor terminology....
I have obvious hiccuping and a very obvious leak coming from the 3 point pto shaft with or without a implement attached. When turning the tractor off the brush hog does steadily fall to the ground. As I've been researching online and my I&T manual things point mostly to O-rings on the hydraulic piston. Just looking for a little more insight as I haven't seen anyone else with my direct issue and wondering if there's some other rings/gasket on the shaft itself that I'm overlooking.
 
Also, I removed the accessory plate and there is brownish liquid (assuming hydro fluid) between it and the lift cover. Is that normal?
