Transmission leak

I started my 928 up about two weeks ago to clear the cobwebs on a nice spring day, I noticed when I pulled out of the garage I had two huge leak spots. The forward spot is my leaking rack with I have a plan for. The rear spot was new though and so I started investigating. I didn't have the car very far off the ground, so I just took some video with my phone around the transmission to see if I could see anything. I think what I have is a leaking banjo bolt and/or rubber hose that goes from the hard line to the side of the body. Is this a fairly common failure? Should I just replace the entire hose and banjo bolt and clean it up and see how it looks? Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Clean it up and see if you can figure out exactly where it's leaking from before you start swapping stuff out.

Will do, just wondering if this was a high failure item. Similar to the rubber I'm replacing for the fuel lines...

Hope and pray it's just that hose. Common issue is the pump seal and that means transaxle gets pulled. Welcome to my world, both my 928's are down due to tranny/TT issues.
