Did not see year, model and miles to better assist.
Possible isolation of exact area would help paint mental picture to question.
example: inner primary near belt ,shifter shaft or outer primary near floor board torx drain bolt.

Wipe it off good and watch. Bet it's the outer primary cover. Just a guess but when I had mine off I was amazed how warped it was. You need to start in the middle and slowly do top and bottom working out. I did it in about 3 steps before I got to torque. It would be very easy to not get it down flat. Harley's gasket is 3 layer with a slight v in it. I still used just a smear of RTV. I torqued by fill but I work on this stuff all the time. I would not normally think of any fluid in a Harley that is clear goeey liquid. Most all in mine is black oily.
