Do you mean the inspection hole on the plastic clutch cover? There is a small metal cover on the front of the trans cover held on with a metal spring, it has a rubber seal. It covers the hole that is used to access the clutch input shaft. Is it possible that the leak is coming from there?
The trans front cover can be swapped in the car, easy on an "S" because there is no turbo and pipes in the way. You have to jack the front of the engine up and remove the fan, not a bad job. Remove the hood for best access. Suggest a new paper gasket with liberal application of Loctite 518 (Permatex #51813). Good luck.
