The splitter box and pump case share a common oil supply so the transmission input seal is sealing in case pressure only. There is no breather on the transmission case, only the flywheel housing. Unless there is some physical damage to the case, the leak can only be from the seal or the O ring on the splined shaft from the drive coupling.
When you take it apart, check the input gear for excess play. There should be about 0.015" endfloat.
If you think the seal is running on a worn portion of the shaft, you can drive the seal in a little further.
*Edit*
This the one where the housing got broken, right? You should also check if the input shaft and flex drive coupling are running true.
Okay good to know. I think when I changed the seal the last time I forgot to get the o-rings for the coupler, that could very well be where this leak is coming from. And yes it is the same one. I will definitely check that, I assumed they were running true because previously it never leaked from the transmission, I only changed the seal as a preventative measure. I also remembered that the splined shaft seemed to have a fair amount of wear on the splines, is that normal?
