The front cover on my smooth case transmission has a spiral groove in the first motion shaft boss. Any idea as to what the purpose of this groove is? The reason I ask is that the transmission leaks oil into the bellhousing if parked with the nose of the car on a slight downhill slope. There is no seal indicated on this front cover in the parts manual and no reference to the groove in the workshop manual. The trans is not over filled with oil. Any info would be appreciated.
