No one can help you until you have located the source of the leak. Could be a leaking center case gasket, cracked case, leaking oil drain bolt, bad oil drain bolt gasket, bad countershaft seal, etc,etc,etc.
Take your skidplate off and pressure wash the entire bottomend of the engine and then let it run to pin point the leak.
The biggest job would be a center case gasket leak.
A cracked case would require a good welder who is familiar with engine design.
The other causes are no big deal to fix.
