Default Low Gear Lube Resevoir

I have a 496 Mag w/ an older Bravo 1 Drive.
For the first time the gear lube bottle was pretty low- below the float and the Smartcraft sent a code.
I checked the obvious lines in the engine compartment/Bilge- Clean and no leaks.
What are the common leaking points in a Bravo 1 Drive to loose gear lube.
Thanks for the help and input.

there are several thing to do fabricated a set up to press-test the bottle and lines along with a press test of drive would be highly recommended as it had to go somewhere as its a seal system

let me know if I can be of any help or if you want to give me a shout and if you feel comfortable Ill walk you through narrowing it down
