C4 Question

As I posted earlier, my C4 started gushing fluid from the rear section yesterday. This was not a drip, it was a steady pour. I have a drivetrain to replace the 302 and C4, but I was curious as to what the problem might be. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks guys.

If the lines that go to the radiator were to crack or break, you could get a big leak fast. They would be more to the center on the passenger side. At the extreme rear if the output shaft seal goes out it will leak there, starts out slow and gets worse as it wears more.At the front the pump seal can leak,though normaly over a longer time getting worse as it does it. Pan gaskets leaks can be fast or slow.
