When removing the bellhousing on my Au today a little bit of water came out and there's also a bit inside the spigot bearing. It's not coolant and there's no evidence of a welsh plug leak.
Any ideas?

We've had a little bit of rain lately, but how did it get inside the spigot?
Ac has had the Wang now for ages and never used it all that much when it did work.

 If as you say it is not coolant then it didn't come from the engine ,providing you have coolant in it , there for it must have come from outside the motor some ware, be it rain. splashed up puddle,washer bottle water, ext. I carn't see it being a problem as such .

might be condensation ?? Had similar on my au I had the gear box out and every day I was under there could see water dripping off block and around that area and I spent hours going over the motor and couldn't find any leaks even pressured up the cooling system and nothing, had me stumped. Then one morning i was under it earlyer in the day and the block was covered in condensation so that was it for me. The car was in a shed the whole time too very strange.
