Default oil drips comming off lower pin for gimbal ring

I'm having a couple drops of oil daily coming off the lower pin for the gimbal ring on a 2002 Bravo 1 set up. I'm not sure what's leaking and its bugging me. It most likely coming from somewhere higher and working its way down to this pin where its dripping onto the driveway. I checked the line that would come from the oil res tank but that does not look like where its coming from so does anyone have some ideas to throw my way?

Only a few places it can come from, the O-ring between drive and bell housing, the lube bottle feed line, or trim fluid manifold. My guess would be the feed line or fitting where it comes thru the transom assembly

prob from the external gear lube rubber line or the cheap plastic fitting to it is cracked leaking gear oil.
