Oil in belt housing

Anyone know how major the damage is with oil in the belt housing? Is it just the seal or shaft? Could there be damage to another part of motor?
Any input would help. Going to try and fix myself. Thank You! Unit is a 2009 Arctic Cat Prowler 650 xt

JK-
the only way oil can get in there is the crank via a bad seal, bearing or damaged shaft-

the nut on the drive clutch maybe backed off and might have pushed the spacer out so the oil is getting in the clutches. take clutch cover off and remove the drive clutch and remove the spacer and check the oring. replace the belt and clean all the oil out of clutch area. put loctite on the nut and torque to spec.if you have any questions send me a message and i will help you.My name is 07 400
