Default Gearbox oil leak

Since yesterday my gearbox leaks oil rapidly, jacked it up to check where it came from. the oil is dripping from the plate that covers the flywheel.
Saxo 1.6 8v from 99 with the 88hp engine

i made a couple video's which can be found here:

What comes in your mind if you see this leakage?

input shaft seal is worn/broken or the diff has exploded sending pieces of planet gear through into the bellhousing area and allowing transmission oil to take the same path.

whatever it is, its gearbox off time.

I was already planning to get the gearbox off, i was already sure that my gearbox has to come off, since i dont have the tools, experience and the place i was already checking for possible solutions,

If the diff would have exploded i would have felt that when i was driving right? today i drove 100m the street and the car drove like it would always do, engaging in gear without any problem, going forward and backward without any problems.

i was already thinking about the inputshaft seal, my seals on the axle outputs are wet but not leaking. took the flywheel cover off to see for any leaks, on the video's on youtube can be seen that the leak only leaks low (under the hole where the shield attatches to) My guess wass the (priceass??? seal)
