Oil Leak on Primary Side
Just got home from an extended weekend trip and noticed a small amount of oil on the garage floor, after inspecting it appears it's coming from the transmission side of the inner primary. My guess is the mainshaft bearing and lip seal is leaking. Any other areas the oil may be leaking from other than the previous mentioned?

Same thing would happen to me after a long ride. Come home and next day I would find a dime size drip on the floor. I kept an eye on it and found I was losing about a qt in 2 weeks. Took it in and had all the seals on that side of the motor changed. $450.00 later no more drips and oil is right where it should be on the dip stick.

You said 'tranny side of the inner primary'... I just did a baker dd6 gear set install and once completed I have a little seepage of tranny oil between the inner primary and the main drive pully. Originally I thought it was the primary cover drain plug leaking. Turns out I must have nicked the main drive pully lip seal with the main shaft end when installing the gear set. It sounds like that same seal is your culprit to me.
