OK there is more trouble!

I have the 5 speed manual transmission and the gearbox is leaking gear oil out of somewhere up high on the gearbox, seems almost like it's leaking out the TOP. I guess I need to pull off the console and take a look up there. From the pattern of where the gear oil is, it seems like it's leaking from near where the shifter goes into the gearbox. How can that be?

The gear oil was really low too because it had been leaking for a few days. I filled it back up for now but I'm trying to find exactly where it's leaking.

The weird thing is I thought it was leaking from the sensor that screws into the passenger side of the gearbox, because that thing had worked its way loose so that it was only hand-tight. I cranked it on tight so it's not leaking there, but the leak didn't go away. I'm not sure if it was ever leaking from there or if the leak was always coming from on top of the transmission.
