Oil & Fuel Oil Leak

[MXman]

Hi Guys,

I just bough a L2800 and have a oil leak from the large line that runs down the center of the tractor. Looks like the previous owner crushed it somehow. Can someone enlighten me what this line is? Also, how involved is it to replace/repair this line?

Thanks

MXman that big pipe going down the center of the tractor is your four wheel drive shaft for you front wheels. from the what i can see in your pics it looks like the shaft could have been bent up in to your oil pan for your engine and put a small hole in it. that is were the oil looks to be coming from in your pics. I do not have a l2800 so i doent know how hard it will be to fix.
