How can I fix my Kenwood Mixer Model A701A (1976?)?

The mixer, Kenwood Chef, serial No 493175, Australian made by Kenwood Peerless Pty Ltd, is leaking oil from the gear above the mixing bowl. I need a breakdown diagram to assist dismantling and repair.
Does it need a mechanical seal or an o'ring?

It's not oil, it's grease (but that's not relevent really). if it's coming from the centre, it is a rubber washer. You shold be able to take the centre nut off clean the excess and retighten the nut with a spanner (the washer is contained within the nut).
