Hi Brad, is it crankcase oil or Hytran fluid leaking out the inspection plate? If it is crankcase oil then it is probably rear main oil seal. If Hytran then probably like others have indicated it is seal on PTO/Transmission drive shaft.
On my brother's 684 we had both cases, ever since new it would leak a little crankcase oil especially if it had been used on a field with a steep hill. The first time we did a clutch job we took off the flywheel and the cap screws on the rear mail oil seal were loose..tightened to spec and no more leaks. Last year the T/A went bad and he had it replaced by an X-IH mechanic and then it started to leak Hytran. Mechanic came back and split the tractor again and replaced the seals on PTO/transmission drive shafts and no more leaks. Mechanic claimed he had replaced the same seals when he did the T/A job.

Hope this helps
JimB
